jwt - RS256 vs HS256: What's the difference? - Stack Overflow
Both choices refer to what algorithm the identity provider uses to sign the JWT. Signing is a cryptographic operation that generates a "signature" (part of the JWT) that the recipient of the token can validate to ensure that the token has not been tampered with. RS256 (RSA Signature with SHA-256) is an asymmetric algorithm, and it uses a public/private key pair: the identity provider has a ...

What are some algorithms for comparing how similar two strings are?
What you're looking for are called String Metric algorithms. There a significant number of them, many with similar characteristics. Among the more popular: Levenshtein Distance : The minimum number of single-character edits required to change one word into the other. Strings do not have to be the same length Hamming Distance : The number of characters that are different in two equal length ...

c - Fast CRC algorithm? - Stack Overflow
CRC32 algorithm is exactly what I'm looking for, but I can't use it because the table it requires is way too huge (it is for an embedded system where resources are VERY rare). So: any suggestions for a fast and slim CRC algorithm? It does not matter when collisions are a bit more probable than with the original CRC32.

What is the fastest integer factorization algorithm?
The algorithm picks on a number A along the curve, then looks up the safe distance and jumps to the next hashtable, or at least the algorithm does those factor checks until the next hashtable becomes available. Given enough hashtables, I'm thinking we can pretty much avoid most of the checking. Notes on lookup tables.

What is the difference between an Algorithm and a Method
In CS, the algorithm is the steps and the method is the means by which we do an action. All the math formulas would be algorithms as they give us instructions how to find or do something--even if they are called methods in math. We would have to code methods in a program to implement actually implement them.

Fuzzy search algorithm (approximate string matching algorithm)
The only way I can think of implementing it as a search algorithm is to perform a linear search and executing the string metric algorithm for each string and returning the strings with scores above a certain threshold.

What is the fastest substring search algorithm? - Stack Overflow
Each search algorithm comes in several variations that can make significant differences to its performance, as, for example, this paper illustrates. Benchmark your service to categorize the areas where additional search strategies are needed or to more effectively tune your selector function.

What is the optimal algorithm for the game 2048? - Stack Overflow
AI Algorithm I found a simple yet surprisingly good playing algorithm: To determine the next move for a given board, the AI plays the game in memory using random moves until the game is over. This is done several times while keeping track of the end game score. Then the average end score per starting move is calculated.
