To determine the efficiency of an algorithm the time factor is measured by:
(A)
Counting micro seconds
(B)
Counting number of key operations
(C)
Counting number of statements
(D)
Counting kilobytes of algorithm
Answer: (B)
Explanation:
To determine the efficiency of an algorithm the time factor is measured by counting the number of key operations. It is not measured by counting statements because less no of statements does not mean that the program is more efficient. Many times we have to write large code for better efficiency. We measure space complexity in kilobytes.
So, option (B) is correct.
