Mengapa Mengukur Efisiensi Algoritma?

# O(n) approach
def find_max_linear(nums):
    m = nums[0]
    for n in nums:
        if n > m: m = n
    return m

# O(n^2) approach (unnecessary double loop)
def find_max_quadratic(nums):
    for i in range(len(nums)):

        if is_max: return nums[i]

Big-O: Batas Atas Asimtotik

# T(n) = 3n^2 + 5n + 100 is O(n^2)
# because the n^2 term dominates for large n

# T(n) = 2n + 1000 is O(n)
# the constant 1000 becomes negligible

# Rule: drop constants and lower-order terms
# 5n^3 + 2n^2 + n + 1  =>  O(n^3)
# 100 * log(n) + n      =>  O(n)
print('O(n^2) example: counting iterations')
n = 1000
count = sum(1 for i in range(n) for j in range(n))
print(count)  # 1_000_000 = n^2

import math

n = 1000
print(f'O(1):       {1}')

# O(2^n) for n=1000 is astronomically large
# O(n!) even larger

Mengabaikan Konstanta: Mengapa Ini Penting

# Both are O(n) — different constants
def count_a(n):
    total = 0
    for i in range(n):   # n ops
        total += 1
    for i in range(n):   # n ops
        total += 1
    return total  # T(n) = 2n  =>  O(n)

def count_b(n):
    total = 0
    for i in range(5 * n):  # 5n ops
        total += 1
    return total  # T(n) = 5n  =>  O(n)

print(count_a(10), count_b(10))  # 20 50
