About this video

There are lots of problems in the world. However, some of these problems are harder than others. What are the qualities that cause some problems to be “harder” to solve than others? In this TechNights session, we’ll explore this idea through the lens of computational complexity - that is, if we use a computer to solve the problems for us, we will ask how hard it is for even a computer to figure out the answers to our problems. We will explore these ideas particularly in application to games and puzzles, including 2-player games, video games and even origami.
