In computational complexity theory, rp (randomized polynomial time with one-sided error) is a class of decision problems where a randomized algorithm can verify a positive instance of the problem with high probability, while it may give an incorrect answer for negative instances. This relationship signifies that rp problems can be solved using algorithms that also fall under the broader class bpp (bounded-error probabilistic polynomial time), which allows for both types of errors but ensures that the probability of error is bounded away from one-half. The connection between these classes illustrates how randomness can be effectively leveraged in algorithms to make decision-making processes more efficient.
congrats on reading the definition of rp is related to bpp. now let's actually learn it.
