Algorithms are used to solve problems, and the PhD student takes it one step further by focusing on creating the most efficient algorithms for those problems.

The phonebook example describes very well search algorithms. Radex is great for integers for example (doesnt need to compare values so to speak). Then for data you can use regular expressions with anchors etc. There are so many possibilities and with each language you can do it a bit different,computer sciences are awesome.

I love their understanding of algorithm. Learning can be very interesting if you have a motivating teacher. Listening to the expert as a Data Analyst is very enriching for me.

I didn't think I knew much about computers and algorithms, but I do make a pretty wicked PB&J, so yeah, I'm now an expert. Time to update the ol' resume.

Ironically (or not very), recipes are exactly algorithms - so if you're going to write down instructions how to do your PB&J, you're basically a computer scientist.

I'm 20, this shows me and makes me question did we all as kids sponge in all kinds of information like that too, or it's easier than I remember it? Are we more selective now, isn't that better? (espacially looking at the 6 yo little girl, she's new to the world) :)

Kids now a days have more information and freedom to find information whenever and wherever they want. Back in the day we had to go to the library to find books. So yeah kids now a days can be smarter than before.

I like that with each level David goes up the less he has to speak. Like he started on level 1 and 2 where he was the only one mostly speaking and the others were mostly just listening and by the end at level 5, David was just listening.
