State
Choose a compact value for each partial subproblem so later choices need only that summary. - 2
Transition
Combine legal smaller states to compute reachability, a count, or an optimum for the next state. - 3
Finish
Read the state representing the full task and compare it with the published sample output. - 4
Verify the sample
Use the published sample output to check the result of this idea on the displayed input.
