Introduction to Algorithm Analysis [For Complete Beginners]
What you'll learn
- Analyze the asymptotic growth of a program
- Analyze the time complexity of many algorithms
- Compare programs
Requirements
- You should have basic algebra skills
- You should have a basic understanding of programming
Description
In this algorithm analysis course you will learn the definitions of Big O, Bog Omega, and Theta. By the end of the course you will understand what these terms mean , why we use them, and how to solve algorithms and programs with them. This is a short course and only takes about 90 minutes to complete. In this course there are plenty of examples and quizzes to learn from so that you are sure to understand the lectures and the material.
Who this course is for:
- Anyone who wants to learn about analyzing programs, functions, and algorithms in general.

Hi ,
I am a Programmer Analyst. I got my bachelors of science degree in Computer Science and am currently taking master courses in computer science with a speciality in data analytics. I have worked in the IT department for over 5 years now, and have learned so much about the business and IT. With my experience, I have created my own website where I share information on computer science topics to students for free,and all in one place. At the same time I was able to improve my web programming skills. I have made videos on mathematics and programming online.
I enjoy playing basketball, football, volleyball, tennis, biking, making videos and exercising in general. I watch allot of videos on mathematics, physics, and technology for leisure time. I would like to travel around the world someday soon. Programming allows me to create my own world using my own rules. Usually if I am not at work or at the gym I am helping friends and family to program. My future plans are to create an android game for fun, have my masters degree in computer science / data analytics, making tutorial videos at home, and spend more time with friends and family.
