Summary
In this chapter, we have looked at an overview of algorithm design. The study of algorithms is important because it trains us to think very specifically about certain problems. It is conducive to increasing our problem-solving abilities by isolating the components of a problem and defining the relationships between them. In this chapter, we discussed different methods for analyzing algorithms and comparing algorithms. We also discussed asymptotic notations, namely: Big Ο, Ω, and θ notation.
In the next chapter, we will discuss algorithm design techniques and strategies.
