Going up a few dress sizes can be caused by so many things that it's unlikely your doctor will look at weight gain alone as a potential thyroid disorder symptom. However, weight gain is one of the top reasons women show up in Dr. Millerâs office for a thyroid checkup.
Exponential Notation. Exponential notation is a method in mathematics that allows the representation of numbers in shorter form and aids in mathematical calculations. For example, 1,000,000 can be written as 1 x 10 6.
Order of magnitude is often called Big-O notation (for âorderâ) and written as \(O(f(n))\). It provides a useful approximation to the actual number of steps in the computation. The function \(f(n)\) provides a simple representation of the dominant part of the original \(T(n)\). In the above example, \(T(n)=1+n\).
