Chapter 18.3, Problem 17STE

Explanation of Solution

Proving running time “T(N) = aN + b”:

  • It is the linear running time.
    • It means a running time of “T(N) = aN + b”
    • A linear running time is always contains “O(N)” running time.
  • From the given question, “N” is always at least “1”. So, user can consider “1N<

4. Give an analysis of the running time (Big-Oh will do).   sum = 0;   for( i = 0; i < n; ++i )   for( j = 0; j < n * n; ++j )   ++sum;
Analyze the following code fragment and provide an asymptotic (Θ) bound on the running time as a function of n. You do not need to give a formal proof, but you should justify your answer.
