Line 1: In [[computer science]] and [[operations research]], '''exact algorithms''' are [[algorithm]]s that always solve an optimization problem to optimality. ~~Optimum solutions can be the real solution or the visible solution (Oyebola Simeon,2019)~~ Unless [[P = NP]], an exact algorithm for an [[NP-hardness \| NP-hard]] optimization problem cannot run in worst-case [[polynomial time]]. There has been extensive research on finding exact algorithms whose running time is exponential with a low base.<ref>{{citation
