Java Program to Perform Optimal Parenthesize using Dynamic Programming

This is a java program to perform optimal paranthesization by making use of dymanic programming. This program determines the order in which the chain of matrices should be multiplied.

Here is the source code of the Java Program to Perform Optimal Paranthesization Using Dynamic Programming. The Java program is successfully compiled and run on a Windows system. The program output is also shown below.
