Informally, an algorithm is a set of explicit instructions used to solve a problem (e.g. Euclid's algorithm for computing the greatest common divisor of two integers). For more specific questions on algorithms, this tag may be used in conjunction with the approximation-algorithms, algorithmic-randomness and algorithmic-topology tags.

How does the greedy algorithm for CSES problem collecting numbers work?
I was actually confused about the problem itself. The problem stated that we had to collect numbers in an increasing order in each round. I assumed that they didn't have to be consecutive. For ex: in …

How does the greedy algorithm for CSES problem collecting numbers work? [closed]
The collecting numbers problem in the CSES problem set has a greedy solution where we compare the position of a number x with the position of x-1. If pos(x) < pos(x-1) then we increment rounds because …
