<p><strong>Q</strong>As a programmer, Ive rarely needed to implement algorithms manually in my daily work. Most commonly used algorithms are already built into programming languages and libraries, ready to use. Does this suggest that the problems we encounter in our work havent yet reached the level of complexity that demands custom algorithm design?</p>
<p>If specific work skills are like the "moves" in martial arts, then fundamental subjects are more like "internal strength".</p>
<p>I believe the significance of learning algorithms (and other fundamental subjects) isnt necessarily to implement them from scratch at work, but to enable more professional decision-making and problem-solving based on a solid understanding of the concepts. This, in turn, raises the overall quality of our work. For example, every programming language provides a built-in sorting function:</p>
<h3 id="2-q-a">2. &nbsp; Q &amp; A<a class="headerlink" href="#2-q-a" title="Permanent link">&para;</a></h3>
<p><strong>Q</strong>: As a programmer, I have never used algorithms to solve problems in my daily work. Common algorithms are already encapsulated by programming languages and can be used directly. Does this mean that the problems in our work have not yet reached the level where algorithms are needed?</p>
<p>If we compare specific work skills to "techniques" in martial arts, then fundamental subjects should be more like "internal skills".</p>
<p>I believe the significance of learning algorithms (and other fundamental subjects) is not to implement them from scratch at work, but rather to be able to make professional reactions and judgments when solving problems based on the knowledge learned, thereby improving the overall quality of work. Here is a simple example. Every programming language has a built-in sorting function:</p>
<ul>
<li>If we have not learned data structures and algorithms, then given any data, we might just give it to this sorting function. It runs smoothly, has good performance, and seems to have no problems.</li>
<li>However, if weve studied algorithms, we understand that the time complexity of a built-in sorting function is typically <span class="arithmatex">\(O(n \log n)\)</span>. Moreover, if the data consists of integers with a fixed number of digits (such as student IDs), we can apply a more efficient approach like radix sort, reducing the time complexity to O(nk) , where k is the number of digits. When handling large volumes of data, the time saved can turn into significant value — lowering costs, improving user experience, and enhancing system performance.</li>
<li>If we have not studied data structures and algorithms, we might simply feed any given data to this sorting function. It runs smoothly with good performance, and there doesn't seem to be any problem.</li>
<li>But if we have studied algorithms, we would know that the time complexity of the built-in sorting function is <span class="arithmatex">\(O(n \log n)\)</span>. However, if the given data consists of integers with a fixed number of digits (such as student IDs), we can use the more efficient "radix sort", reducing the time complexity to <span class="arithmatex">\(O(nk)\)</span>, where <span class="arithmatex">\(k\)</span> is the number of digits. When the data volume is very large, the saved running time can create significant value (reduced costs, improved experience, etc.).</li>
</ul>
<p>In engineering, many problems are difficult to solve optimally; most are addressed with near-optimal solutions. The difficulty of a problem depends not only on its inherent complexity but also on the knowledge and experience of the person tackling it. The deeper ones expertise and experience, the more thorough the analysis, and the more elegantly the problem can be solved.</p>
<p>In the field of engineering, a large number of problems are difficult to reach optimal solutions, and many problems are only solved "approximately". The difficulty of a problem depends on one hand on the nature of the problem itself, and on the other hand on the knowledge reserve of the person observing the problem. The more complete a person's knowledge and the more experience they have, the deeper their analysis of the problem will be, and the more elegantly the problem can be solved.</p>
