Explanation of Solution

Divide and conquer:

The approach of dividing a program into smaller chunks is called as “divide and conquer” because; a large program is divided into smaller tasks (called modules) that can be easily performed.

  • This is done in order to reduce complexity of a program. Instead of writing a large complex program, it can be divided into small chunks, each one performing particular part of the task.

Example for “divide and conquer”:

#Function to add numbers

def add(num1,num2):

    #Add the numbers
