That's why they got that "public" in films... that way anyone saying it happens will be taken as a fool
M.D.V. 
If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

I have a feeling the the US has forgotten the concept of a High Low Mix.
You should rather look at what Israel is doing at the moment, they have been at the forefront of drone design for decades.
I read about their concept drone swarms for SEAD purposes.
Several types of drones get air launched from airplanes at a safe(ish) distance where they are specifically designed to take out an S-400 system by simply overwhelming it.
Also rises the question when it stops being a drone and starts being a missile.

The Israeli Apache Attack Helicopter has a set of small drones that fly with the aircraft as a targeting and firing solution. The U.S. would sell the base model aircraft to them and they would refit the aircraft with the drone system. If the aircraft needs any base refit, the Israeli military will strip the drone system and send the aircraft back.

I signed up recently on codility where programmers can learn writing algorithms and companies are use it to evaluate candidates for position, what i observed is that for normal inputs my solution always passes, but for very large input my code does not returns result within the time bounds they require, i wanted to know from what source we can learn our algorithm writing skills so that they return the result in the acceptable execution time. or what can be the approaches for that?

Wikipedia (casual browsing is great so you can later recall that something is a solved problem, saving lots of effort that would have gone into reinventing algorithms for it) and Competitive Programming sites that do tutorials, TopCoder is pretty good.
Bottom-up dynamic programming probably deserves additional practice, not because it's that hard (it isn't) but because it's so broadly applicable even to many problems that aren't well-known solved problems. It also unifies a lot of named algorithms that turn out to be nothing more than applications of DP.
Works for me anyway. Some people read actual books, I've only read TAOCP 4A.

Thanks for your valuable feedback, so your recommendation is to read the book and solve problems on topcoder, right?

What you are talking about is explained quite well :
Big O Notation
Big O notation uses a function to describe how the algorithm's worst-case performance relates to the problem size as the size grows very large. (This is sometimes called the program's asymptotic performance.)
Rod Stephens, the author, shows example algorithms in relation to how they are affected by problem set size and explains how to talk about them using Big O notation. It's the clearest explanation I've seen of this. You can read more of the sample from the book at the amazon link.

Was the temp where I was yesterday afternoon. Hot does not to begin to describe it. (44.4C for those less edumacated).
OTOH, I got close to 300 miles from half a tank using cruise control and a reasonable speed on clear freeways. The range was up at 475 miles at 11:17 and the temp was a cool 98F.

The question is: how big is the tank? 
I was surprised when I bought my current car (a second hand Mercedes A180): I got nearly 60 mpg at mostly 70 mph on the drive home: 287 miles and well under half a tank (53 litres capacity).

It's a VW - seems far less thirsty than my last car. Don't get anything like that mileage in and around town - this was freeway driving on straight flat roads with little traffic.

I'm impressed with the Baby Benz - it's my second A-Class and it's far, far less thirsty than the previous. The previous was a series 1 1.6l petrol, and this is a series 2 2.0l turbo diesel. From 35mpg average in the old one to averaging over 50 on mostly slow, short trips is a revelation! (And it's a much nicer car to drive as well!)
And I thought the old was was pretty efficient when I got it, because the car it replaced did 20mpg ...  (a Mitsubishi Shogun 4x4)

To be fair I take it that's UK gallons, not those colonial knock-offs.

Real gallons, yes.

Where was the other half of the tank ? Was it a half-track ?
Are you re-hydrated now ?
«When I consider my brief span of life, swallowed up in an eternity before and after, the little space I fill, and even can see, engulfed in the infinite immensity of spaces of which I am ignorant, and which know me not, I am frightened, and am astonished at being here rather than there; for there is no reason why here rather than there, now rather than then.» Blaise Pascal
