What is Big O notation and what is it used for?
Can you give me an example of how Big O notation is used?
Sure, let's say you have two algorithms that perform the same task, but one algorithm takes longer to complete than the other. Big O notation can be used to compare the performance of these two algorithms, based on their complexity and how they scale when processing large data sets. This can help you choose the more efficient algorithm for solving a particular problem.
