Study Notes
Algorithm Efficiency
- False: Execution time of an algorithm is not measured in units of memory used.
- True: The criterion of efficiency is decisive in the analysis of algorithms, as it determines how well an algorithm performs.
- True: Execution time depends mainly on the execution speed of the machine, as faster machines can run algorithms more quickly.
- True: The number of instructions executed is a measure of the execution time of an algorithm, as it affects how long the algorithm takes to complete.
- True: The execution time of sorting a set of items depends on the size of the input, as larger inputs take longer to sort.
