Read the dialogue between a senior and a junior programmer: Senior Programmer (Sarah): Hey, Mark! Can we talk for a moment? I noticed there's a problem with the algorithm you implemented for determining the closest taxis to our clients. Clients are getting assigned to taxis that are nowhere near their location. Junior Programmer (Mark): Oh, hey Sarah. I must have messed up. I apologize for that. [Scratching his head.]Sarah: We need to fix it as soon as possible to provide better service. I n our case, we need to assign clients to the nearest taxis accurately. Junior Programmer (Mark): That’s exactly what I did: implemented measuring the distance between points and selecting the closest ones. The service then assigns the client to the closest available taxi. There may be some bug… I'll make sure to dive deeper into it and fix the issues. After all, it is a standard algorithm that all taxi and delivery services use. Senior Programmer (Sarah): It is what I think? Junior Programmer (Mark): I am dead sure. Question: What algorithm do both the senior and junior programmers mean?
