CS420 lecture one Problems, algorithms, decidability, tractability

CS420 lecture one Problems, algorithms, decidability, tractability. Problems, solutions, algorithms. In this course we study questions such as: given a problem, how do we find an (efficient) algorithm solving it? How do we measure the complexity (time, space requirements) of an algorithm.

Average case analysis of randomized quicksort

Starting on page 156 of Cormen, et al. Average case analysis of randomized quicksort. Running time is dominated by partition. The running time is dominated by the running time in partition procedure Each time partition is called, a pivot element is picked

Time Analysis

Time Analysis. Since the time it takes to execute an algorithm usually depends on the size of the input, we express the algorithm's time complexity as a function of the size of the input
