Sep 19, 2015 at 22:21 comment added gnasher729 True for NP-complete problems. But for example for the travelling salesman problem, the NP-complete problem is "is there a tour of 639 miles or less" which can be verified. The real problem "what is the shortest tour" is not a YES/NO problem and doesn't belong to the class NP.
