2 MA008 p.2/36 Content of lecture 2 Examples Review data structures Data types vs. data structures. Pros and Cons (when to use what) Asymptotic notation Purpose of the notation Theoretical foundation
3 MA008 p.3/36 Data Structures reviewed Types/Structures: Basic data types (Scalars) Arrays (1-dimensional) n-dimensional arrays (matrix) Lists Trees Graphs (directed, undirected) Whiteboard exercise
4 MA008 p.4/36 Asymptotic notation Example: Assume two programs where the running time is: T 1 (n) = n 3. T 2 (n) = 100n. The former algorithm may be faster for small n. But the study on small n is not interesting. Why?
5 MA008 p.5/36 Asymptotic notation Example: Assuming one million operations per second. n T 1 (n) T 2 (n) T 1 (n)/t 2 (n) sec sec sec 0.01 sec 100 1, sec 0.1 sec 10, , days 1 sec 1, 000, 000
6 MA008 p.6/36 Asymptotic notation Studying behavior for large n is interesting because: Almost all commercially practical problems involve large n Impact of large n is much more pronounced than for small n (when n is small the computational complexity doesn t really matter). Constants are almost always neglected since such factors do not contribute significantly when n is large (e.g. lim n ).
7 MA008 p.7/36 Asymptotic notation Essential to know the answer to: Q: What is n when processing: A set of numbers, set of vectors a or sequences b, iterative/recursive processing of data? Q: What is a basic operator? Is output a basic operator? a Fixed dimensional b Finite length sequences.
8 MA008 p.8/36 Asymptotic Notation Is the representation of running times of algorithms in a simple form by considering its fastest growing term and asymptotic insignificant factors.
9 MA008 p.9/36 Asymptotic Notation Let f(n) and g(n) be two functions, which are assumed to be positive. Suppose we want to assert that f(n) and g(n) grow at roughly the same rates for large n (ignoring constant factors). This would be equivalent to saying lim n f(n) g(n) = c, where c is some non-zero numerical constant.
10 MA008 p.10/36 Asymptotic Notation In asymptotic notation we write f(n) O(g(n)). Intuitively, it means that f(n) and g(n) are asymptotically equivalent. Indeed, lim n f(n) g(n) = c lim n g(n) f(n) = 1/c, provided c 0,.
11 MA008 p.11/36 Asymptotic Notation To compare the order of growth of an algorithm this can formally be distinguished by the three notations: O (big Oh), Θ (big Theta), and Ω (big Omega), where Ω stands for the set of all functions with a larger or same order of growth Θ is for the set of functions that have the same order of growth, and O is the set of all functions with a smaller or same order of growth.
12 MA008 p.12/36 Asymptotic Notation Suppose we want to assert that f(n) does not grow significantly faster than g(n). Then the ratio f(n)/g(n) should either approach a constant (they are equivalent) or 0 (if g(n) grows faster than f(n)). In this case we say f(n) O(g(n)). Common definitions: Asymptotic Form Relationship Definition f(n) Θ(g(n)) f(n) g(n) 0 < lim n f(n) g(n) <. f(n) O(g(n)) f(n) g(n) 0 lim n f(n) g(n) <. f(n) Ω(g(n)) f(n) g(n) 0 < lim n f(n) g(n).
13 MA008 p.13/36 Asymptotic Notation An example: Let T(n) = (n 3 + 3n 2 + 2n)/6. Then T(n) Θ(n 3 ). Since lim n T(n) n 3 = lim n (n 3 + 3n 2 + 2n)/6 n 3 = lim n ( n + 1 3n 2) = 1 6, and 0 < 1/6 <. (Note that it also follows that T(n) O(n 3 ) and T(n) Ω(n 3 )).
14 MA008 p.14/36 Asymptotic Notation: Rules The following rules are useful when dealing with asymptotic comparisons. L Hôpital s rule: If f(n) and g(n) both approach 0 or both approach in the limit, then lim n f(n) g(n) = lim n f (n) g (n), where f (n) and g (n) denote the derivatives of f and g relative to n.
15 MA008 p.15/36 Asymptotic Notation Constants: Multiplicative and additive constants are ignored. When constants appear in exponents or as the base of an exponential, they are significant. Thus, n 2 O(n 3 ) and 2 n O(3 n ) (Can you prove it?). Logarithm base: Logarithms in different bases differ only by a constant factor, thus log 2 n log 3 n. Thus, the logarithm bases inside asymptotic notations are often ignored, as in O(n log n).
16 MA008 p.16/36 Asymptotic Notation Properties of Logarithms and Summations: Since logarithms/summations occur frequently in the analysis of algorithms, we briefly review the properties of logarithms/summations as follows.
17 MA008 p.17/36 Asymptotic Notation: Review of log Logs and powers: Remember that you call pull an exponent out of a logarithm as a multiplicative factor. Thus n log 2 (n 2 ) = 2n log 2 n n log n. Exponents and logs: Remember that exponentials and logs cancel one another. Thus 2 log 2 n = n.
18 MA008 p.18/36 Asymptotic Notation: Review continued Logs and polynomials: For any a,b 0, (log n) a O(n b ). This simply says that logs grow more slowly than any polynomial. Polynomials and exponentials: For any a 0,b > 1,n a O(b n ). This simply says that polynomials grow more slowly than any exponential.
19 MA008 p.19/36 Asymptotic Notation: Further properties of log Let x,y > 0 and a,b > 1. Then the following properties apply: 1. log b (xy) = log b x + log b y 2. log b (x/y) = log b x log b y 3. log b (x i ) = i log b x 4. log b x = 1/ log x b 5. log b x = log b a log a x 6. x log b y = y log b x.
20 MA008 p.20/36 Asymptotic Notation Exercise: Prove property 5: (log b x = log b a log a x).
21 MA008 p.21/36 Asymptotic Notation Property 5 explains why we can talk of logarithmic growth without reference to the base. Suppose f(n) = log b n and g(n) = log a n. Then f(n) = log b a g(n). The factor log b a is a constant (independent of n). Hence f(n) is Θ(g(n)) and vice versa. Thus, we often say a function is Θ(log n) without specifying the base, since the base does not affect the rate of growth. Suppose f(n) = b log a n. Then from property 6 we can rewrite f(n) = n log a b, which is a more meaningful form.
22 MA008 p.22/36 Asymptotic Notation: Summations Constant Series: For integers a and b, b 1 = i=a { (b a + 1) if b a 1 0 otherwise. Proof:
23 Asymptotic Notation: Summations Constant Series: For integers a and b, b 1 = i=a { (b a + 1) if b a 1 0 otherwise. Proof: b i=a 1 = b 1 i=0 a 1 i=0 1 = }{{} b+1 times }{{} a times = b + 1 a MA008 p.22/36
24 MA008 p.23/36 Asymptotic Notation: Arithmetic Series Arithmetic Series: For n 0, n i=0 i = n = n(n + 1). 2 That is Θ(n 2 ). Proof:
25 Asymptotic Notation: Arithmetic Series Arithmetic Series: For n 0, n i=0 i = n = n(n + 1). 2 That is Θ(n 2 ). Proof: n i=0 i + 0 i=n i = 2 n i i=0 = (n + 1) + (n + 1) + + (n + 1) }{{} n times = (n + 1)n MA008 p.23/36
26 MA008 p.24/36 Asymptotic Notation: Geometric Series Geometric Series: Let x 1 be any constant (independent of n), then for n 0, n i=0 x i = 1 + x + x x n = xn+1 1 x 1. If 0 < x < 1 then this is Θ(1). If x > 1, then this is Θ(x n ), that is, the entire sum is proportional to the last element of the series. Can you proof it?
27 MA008 p.25/36 Asymptotic Notation: Quadratic Series Quadratic Series: For n 0, n i=0 i 2 = n 2 = 2n3 + 3n 2 + n. 6
28 MA008 p.26/36 Asymptotic Notation: Summations Linear-geometric Series: This arises in some algorithms based on trees and recursion. Let x 1 be any constant, then for n 0, n 1 i=0 ix i = x + 2x 2 + 3x nx n = (n 1)x(n+1) nx n + x (x 1) 2. (What happens in the case where x = 1?)
29 MA008 p.27/36 Asymptotic Notation: Summations Harmonic Series: This arises often in probabilistic analyses of algorithms. It does not have an exact closed form of solution, but is can be closely approximated. For n 0, H n = n i=1 1 i = n ln n.
30 MA008 p.28/36 Asymptotic Notation: Summations Summations with general bounds: When a summation does not start at the 1 or 0, you can just split it up into the difference of two summations. For example, for 1 a b b f(i) = b f(i) a 1 f(i). i=a i=0 i=0
31 MA008 p.29/36 Approximate using integrals: Integration and summation are closely related. (Integration is in some sense a continuous form of summation.) Let f(x) be any monotonically increasing function (the function increases as x increases). n 0 f(x)dx n i=1 f(i) n+1 1 f(x)dx.
32 MA008 p.30/36 Asymptotic Notation: An example Let us consider a simple example. Let A[1..4n] be some array. We are going to run the following algorithm. FOR i = n TO 2n DO{ } FOR j = 1 TO i DO{ IF (A[j] <= A[2j]) OUTPUT hello ; } Question: In the worst case, how many times is the hello line printed as a function of n?
33 Asymptotic Notation: Example Worst case: The elements of A are in ascending order if statement can always be true. Let T(n) be the number of outputs. Then the nested summation is expressed as: T(n) = 2n i 1. i=n j=1 The 1 is for one output operation. Solving these from the inside out, we see that the last summation is a constant sum, and hence T(n) = 2n (i 1 + 1) = 2n i. i=n i=n MA008 p.31/36
34 MA008 p.32/36 Asymptotic Notation This is just an arithmetic series, with general bounds, which we can break into the difference of two arithmetic series, starting from 0. T(n) = = 2n i=0 i n 1 i=0 2n(2n + 1) 2 i n(n 1) 2 = (4n2 + 2n) (n 2 n) 2 = 3 2 (n2 + n) Θ(n 2 ).
35 MA008 p.33/36 Exercise 1 Indicate whether g(n) f(n), g(n) f(n), g(n) f(n). g(n) = (n(n + 1) and f(n) = 2000n 2 g(n) = log 2 (n) and f(n) = log(n) g(n) = 2 2 n and f(n) = 2 n g(n) = (n 1)! and f(n) = n! g(n) = 100n 2 and f(n) = 0.01n 3
36 MA008 p.34/36 Exercise 2 Sashi, the inventor of the game chess, was offered a reward of his own choosing. Sashi asked for: a single grain of rice on the first square of the chess board, 2 grains on the second square, 4 grains on the 3rd square, 8 grains on the 4th, etc. until all 64 squares are filled. How much rise did Sashi ask for?
37 MA008 p.35/36 Exercise 2 (answer) Number of rice grains: 64 i=1 2i 1 = 63 j=0 2i Apply geometric series: = Assuming that one rice grain occupies 3mm 3. Then the total volume of rice would be mm 2 = km 2 This is approx 1/10 of the earth s volume!
