Backtracking algorithm is a problem-solving algorithm that uses a brute force approach for finding the desired output. Problems on backtracking are common in coding interviews. Here is a tutorial on backtracking problems. Learn more about Scaler: https://bit.ly/3yvTeXP 🔹 What is Backtracking Algorithm in Data Structures and Algorithm? Backtracking consists of building a set of solutions in an incremental manner. All the solutions that fail to satisfy the contraints will be removed. The algorithm builds a solution step by step increasing levels over time. Usually, we use a backtracking algorithm for to find solutions to decision problems as well as optimization problems. Sometimes, backtracking is also used for enumeration problems. Backtracking algorithm is not just useful for coding interviews but also for competitive programming. We have even covered important questions like N queens problem using backtracking to help you gain more insights into data structures and algorithms.
