This dimension groups algorithms by the design technique they use, divide and conquer, dynamic programming or greedy choice. Wikipedia notes that "advanced algorithms may utilize loops and involve many conditionals that decide the next step based on the inputs provided," a structural choice that defines the technique behind the algorithm. Browsing by design technique keeps algorithms built the same way grouped together.
