Now that we have seen the basics of big-O notation, it is time to relate this to the analysis of algorithms. Although big-O notation is a way of describing the order of a function, it is also often meant to represent the time complexity of an algorithm. This is sloppy use of the mathematics, but unfortunately not uncommon.

Big-Oh (the "O" stands for "order of") notation is concerned with what happens for very large values of N, therefore only the largest term in a polynomial is needed. All smaller terms are dropped.

Big O notation is used in Computer Science to describe the performance or complexity of an algorithm. Big O specifically describes the worst-case scenario, and can be used to describe the execution time required or the space used (e.g. in memory or on disk) by an algorithm.

I recently read A Beginners’ Guide to Big O Notation and while I appreciate such efforts I don’t think it went far enough. I’m a huge fan of “plain English” explanations to, well, anything. Just look at the formal definition of Big O.

the problem is not to find a way to sort words, but to find a way to efficiently sort words. This article is about understanding how to compare This notation, known as big-O notation, is a typical way of describing algorithmic efficiency; note that big-O notation typically does not call for inclusion of constants.
