Dynamic programming approach is similar to divide and conquer in breaking down the problem into smaller and yet smaller possible sub-problems. But unlike, divide and conquer, these sub-problems are not solved independently.

It finds the optimal solution to these sub-problems. It stores the results of sub problems. The process of storing the results of sub problems is known as memorization. It reuses them so that same sub-problem is calculated more than once. Finally, calculate the result of the complex problem.

This process works to solve larger problems by finding the solution to sub problems recursively, caching each result.

It uses the tabulation technique to implement the dynamic programming approach. It solves the same kind of problems but it removes the recursion. If we remove the recursion, there is no stack overflow issue and no overhead of the recursive functions. In this tabulation technique, we solve the problems and store the results in a matrix.

Dynamic programming can be used to obtain local as well as the total optimal solution. 2. Dynamic programming algorithms are generally compact code pieces as they are based on recursive functions. 3. The linear and non-linear problem, both kind of problems can be solved using dynamic programming. 4. Dynamic programming algorithms are easy to debug.

Dynamic programming uses recursion, which requires more memory in the call stack, and leads to a stack overflow condition in the runtime. 2. It takes memory to store the solutions of each sub-problem. There is no guarantee that the stored value will be used later in execution.
