2010年2月22日 · Divide and conquer algorithms usually have a logn component to the running time. This comes from the repeated halving of the input. In the case of binary search, every iteration you throw away half of the input. It should be noted that in …

@Z3d4s the what steps 7-8 conversion is saying that nlogn == log (n^n) and for showing the bound here you can say the first term is always greater than the second term you can check for any larger values, and for expressing big-O complexity we will always take the dominating item of all. So nlogn contributes to the big-O time.

2012年4月29日 · For the short answer, O (log n) is better than O (n) Now what exactly is O ( log n) ? Generally, when referring to big O notation, log n refers to the base-2 logarithm, (same way ln represents base e logarithms). This base-2 logarithm is the inverse of an exponential function. An exponential function grows very rapidly and we can intuitively deduce that it's inverse will do …

2019年4月27日 · I am preparing for software development interviews, I always faced the problem in distinguishing the difference between O(logn) and O(nLogn). Can anyone explain me with some examples or share some

2016年1月8日 · Log^2 (n) means that it's proportional to the log of the log for a problem of size n. Log (n)^2 means that it's proportional to the square of the log.

I thought that $\\log(n!)$ would be $\\Omega(n \\log n )$, but I read somewhere that $\\log(n!) = O(n\\log n)$. Why?

2009年10月20日 · O (1) - most cooking procedures are O (1), that is, it takes a constant amount of time even if there are more people to cook for (to a degree, because you could run out of space in your pot/pans and need to split up the cooking) O (logn) - finding something in your telephone book. Think binary search. O (n) - reading a book, where n is the number of pages. It is the …

2017年5月23日 · O (log log n) terms can show up in a variety of different places, but there are typically two main routes that will arrive at this runtime. Shrinking by a Square Root As mentioned in the answer to the linked question, a common way for an algorithm to have time complexity O (log n) is for that algorithm to work by repeatedly cut the size of the input down by some …

2015年5月30日 · How is O(log(log(n))) O (log (log (n))) also O(log n) O (log n)? I have seen this result somewhere with this but I still didn't quite understand how this is true. This would also help me compute Big Omega of the same function.

2022年7月19日 · By Stirling's approximation, log(n!) = n log(n) - n + O(log(n)) For large n, the right side is dominated by the term n log (n). That implies that O (log (n!)) = O (n log (n)). More formally, one definition of "Big O" is that f (x) = O (g (x)) if and only if lim sup|f(x)/g(x)| < ∞ as x → ∞ Using Stirling's approximation, it's easy to show that log (n!) ∈ O (n log (n)) using this ...
