What's big O notation?

Simplified version of algorithm? How do we use it in programming? What're its benefits?

A notation used to denote the complexity of an algorithm. The O usually stands for "order of".

Big O notation is used in Computer Science to describe the performance or complexity of an algorithm. Big O specifically describes the worst-case scenario, and can be used to describe the execution time required or the space used (e.g. in memory or on disk) by an algorithm.
