Study Notes
Criteria for Algorithm Analysis
- Criteria typically include correctness, efficiency, and simplicity among others.
- A point that is NOT considered part of these criteria would be originality, as it doesn’t impact algorithm performance directly.
Execution Time of an Algorithm
- Execution time can be affected by multiple factors including the size of the input data.
- Generally, more complex algorithms tend to exhibit longer execution times.
T(n) in Algorithm Analysis
- T(n) denotes the time complexity of an algorithm as a function of the input size n.
- It helps in understanding how the execution time scales with different input sizes.
Contradictory Aspects in Algorithm Analysis
- An aspect considered contradictory might involve an algorithm being both efficient and easy to implement, yet exhibiting poor performance with large datasets.
- Efficiency might sometimes conflict with ease of understanding or implementation.
Efficiency Factors of an Algorithm
- The efficiency of an algorithm often depends on the algorithm’s complexity, which can be described through Big O notation.
- Other factors include hardware capabilities, programming language, and implementation skills.
