Brute Force

A Brute Force Algorithm Tries Everything

What is a Brute Force Algorithm?🦍

A Brute Force Algorithm tries every possible combination in a problem for a solution.

What's your pin number? 💳 🛍️ 🛒

A Brute Force algorithm tries every possible combination to guess a correct pin number

Brute Force a Pin Number
Assumptions: 
  Pin = Numbers = #
  Pin = 4 Digits = ____

Start with 0000
Add 1 & Try Pin 
Repeat 

0000 -> 0001 -> 0002...9998 -> 9999
10,000 possible pin numbers

🔨In Computer Science a Brute Force solution is normally not the best solution but is a good starting point to get a deeper understanding of the problem.🔨
