[C Lang] Algorithms and Time Complexity

Question

Can someone tell me is important to know Time Complexity and everything about Algorithm Analysis? That is difficult a lot for me. Is even important to know this?

Answer 1

OK . Lets start it.

In computation field some critical questions have been raised.

"How we know that an algorithm is efficient?"

"How we can compare X algorithm with Y algorithm?"

So we manage to introduce some concepts. One of them is Time Complexity.

Time Complexity is just a measure of the time for a algorithm to complete the designed task.

So we can discover if a algorithm is fast or not and make comparison with another algorithms.

For example. Google search mechanism is very fast. If Google decided to use randomly use any algorithm probably it would take an eternity to make a simple search.

But only Time Complexity is not sufficient to say with a algorithm is efficient or not. With the increase of data, problems complexity, possible solutions, ... , it was necessary to create a hole field to deep analyze and design algorithms.

That's why Algorithm Analysis is so important.
