Program Plan Intro
Running times of
It is given that for n-element of array
Worst case running time:
The worst-case running time measures the resource required in the algorithm. While calculating the running time it takes the input size of “n” to calculate the algorithm. This running time is referred as worst-case running time.
Best case running time:
The best-case running time measures the usage of resource in at least, at most and average cases. The time complexity is calculated based on the input size of “n”.

Given an n-element sequence of integers, an algorithm executes an O(n)-time computation for each even number in the
sequence, and an O(logn)-time computation for each odd number in the sequence. What are the best-case and worst-case
running times of this algorithm? Why? Show with proper notations.
2. For a problem we have come up with three algorithms: A, B, and C. Running time
of Algorithm A is O(n¹000), Algorithm B runs in 0(2¹) and Algorithm C runs in
O(n!). How do these algorithms compare in terms of speed, for large input?
Explain why.
For function f(n)=log n and time t=1 second, determine the largest size n of a problem that can be solved in time t, assume that the algorithm to solve the problem takes f(n) microseconds.
