mean impulse or no? it won't
From everything I could find it was Carl himself, But if you heard the poem online somewhere it could've been anywhere. Where did you hear it?
A, the fate of prisoners.
Let s(i),k denote the substring s(i)s(i+1)...s k. Let Opt(k) denote whether the sub-string s1,k can be segmented using the words in the dictionary, namely (k) =1 if the segmentation is possible and 0 otherwise. A segmentation of this sub-string s1,k is possible if only the last word (say si k) is in the dictionary theremaining substring s1,i can be segmented.
Therefore, we have equation:Opt(k) = max Opt(i) 0<i<k and s(i+1),kis a word in the dictionary
We can begin solving the above recurrence with the initial condition that Opt(0) =1 and then go on to comput eOpt(k) for k= 1, 2. The answer correspond-ing to Opt(n) is the solution and can be computed in Θ(n2) time.
Because he is having problem in buisness it is not appropiate because she asks what is his problem not how is he doing.
hope this helps
