Enumerated constants, also known as enums, are a type in programming languages that allow you to define a set of named constants, where each constant is assigned an integer value. Enums are used to make code more readable and maintainable,…
A dangling pointer is a pointer that points to memory that has been de-allocated or has gone out of scope. Accessing memory through a dangling pointer can result in undefined behavior, including crashes and data corruption. The dangling pointer problem…
In the C programming language, dynamic memory allocation is performed using the malloc() function and the related functions calloc() and realloc(). The malloc() function takes a single argument, the size in bytes of the block of memory to be allocated,…
Big-Ω notation is a way of describing the lower bound of the growth rate of the running time of an algorithm. It provides an estimation of how fast the running time of an algorithm decreases as the size of the…
Big-O notation is a way of describing the upper bound of the growth rate of the running time of an algorithm. It provides an estimation of how fast the running time of an algorithm increases as the size of the…
Algorithms can be classified based on different criteria, but some common classes of algorithms include:
Asymptotic notation is a mathematical notation used to describe the behavior of functions in the limit, as the size of the input goes to infinity. In algorithm analysis, asymptotic notation is used to describe the growth rate of the time…
Time complexity refers to the amount of time an algorithm takes to solve a problem, expressed as a function of the size of the input. It is usually measured in terms of the number of basic operations performed by the…
The analysis of algorithms refers to the process of studying the performance of algorithms with respect to time and space complexity. It involves determining the number of resources (such as time and memory) an algorithm requires to solve a particular…
