Big O in probability notation

The order in probability notation is used in probability theory and statistical theory in direct parallel to the big-O notation that is standard in mathematics. Where the big-O notation deals with the convergence of sequences or sets of ordinary numbers, the order in probability notation deals with convergence of sets of random variables, where convergence is in the sense of convergence in probability.

Big O notation is simpler than you might think

Big O notation is a very popular topic, in contexts such as algorithms and P vs NP. In this video, I attempt to explain big O notation using only basic arithmetic, so that these other topics can be enjoyed by everyone! Timestamps: Intro: 00:00 Eventuality: 00:28 Deltas: 03:54 Stolz-Ces

Big O Part 4 – Logarithmic Complexity

The raw performance of an algorithm, program, or a programmatic operation depends on a number of factors such, not least the computer it’s running on. Big O is not concerned with this; Big O describes the way the time taken by a program (or memory or space usage) depends on the amount of

Big O Strikes Back

In this video, we are trying to get a better intuition for what it means if some algorithm has particular time or space requirements in big O notation. In doing so, we will learn what time complexity means, look at typical running times of algorithms and consider if there might be alternat
