Question
In a computational complexity theory, a problem with decision making is said to be NP-complete when it is both in NP and NP-hard. What does NP mean?
Options:
A .  Non Polynomial time
B .  Non-deterministic Probabilistic
C .  Non-deterministic Polynomial time
D .  Non Probabilistic time
Answer: Option C


Although any given solution to an NP-complete problem can be validated quickly in polynomial time; there is no way to efficiently locate a solution to begin with. The unique characteristic of NP-complete problems is that no fast solution to them is known and hence NP-complete problems are said to be non-deterministic polynomial time.
