Let me break this down and then provide an iterative solution: Code Explanation: This is a dynamic programming recursive function that solves an optimization problem with the following characteristics: 1. It takes a graph (likely a list of line lengths), number of lines left to select, and distance since last line selection. 2. It has two main strategies for each recursive call: - Option 1: Skip the current line (if distance since last line is < 10) - Option 2: Take the current line (if lines left > 0) 3. When taking a line, it adds the line's length and penalizes based on distance since last line 4. Uses memoization via `@lru_cache` to speed up recursive calls 5. Returns a tuple of (minimum total cost, selected line indices) Here's an iterative solution that matches the functionality:

Let me break this down step by step: 1. Code Explanation: This is a dynamic programming/recursive solution to an optimization problem. The function `solve_dp` appears to be solving some routing or line selection problem with constraints: - `graph` is an input list of values/costs - `lines_left` tracks how many lines can still be selected - `distance_since_last` tracks consecutive skips between line selections The function does two main things at each recursive step: - Option 1: Skip the current line (if allowed by distance constraint) - Option 2: Take the current line (if lines are left) It minimizes a cost function that: - Penalizes taking lines with a quadratic cost `(distance_since_last-8)**2` - Ensures you can't have too many consecutive skips The `@lru_cache` decorator provides memoization to significantly speed up recursive calls. 2. Iterative Solution: Here's an iterative implementation that preserves the same logic:

Let me break this down and then provide an iterative solution: This is a dynamic programming solution (note the `@lru_cache`) solving some optimization problem with constraints: 1. The function takes: - `graph`: A list of line lengths - `lines_left`: Number of lines you can still take - `distance_since_last`: How many lines since last line taken 2. It returns a tuple of: - Minimum total cost - List of indices of lines taken 3. The cost calculation involves: - Base costs of taking a line (line length) - A quadratic penalty based on `distance_since_last` - Constraints on line selection Here's an iterative version that explicitly shows the cubic work:

Let me break this down and then provide an iterative solution: Explanation of the Recursive Function: This is a dynamic programming solution that appears to solve an optimization problem with constraints. The function takes: - `graph`: A list of values (likely representing line lengths or costs) - `lines_left`: Number of lines that can still be taken - `distance_since_last`: A tracking variable for some distance/spacing constraint The function tries two options at each recursive step: 1. Skip the current line (if possible) 2. Take the current line (if lines are left) The goal seems to be minimizing a total cost, with a penalty term `(distance_since_last-8)**2` and constraints on line selection. The `@lru_cache` decorator suggests memoization to improve performance. Here's an iterative solution that matches the recursive approach:

Let me break this down and then provide an iterative solution: The function `solve_dp` appears to be solving an optimization problem with dynamic programming: 1. It's a recursive function with memoization (via `@lru_cache`) 2. Takes parameters: - `graph`: A list of numeric values - `lines_left`: Number of lines that can still be taken - `distance_since_last`: Distance since the last line was taken 3. The function explores two options at each recursive step: - Option 1: Don't take the current line (if allowed) - Option 2: Take the current line (if lines are left) 4. The optimization seems to involve: - Minimizing a total cost - A penalty for the distance between lines (quadratic term `(distance_since_last-8)**2`) - Selecting a subset of lines with constraints Here's an iterative solution that matches the recursive behavior:
