Lab 9: Limitations of Computing
This week, we will study the rates of growths of differnt functions, and understand
why some algorithms are faster than others.
Lab Tasks:
- Visit the Sorting
Applets pages. (Note that there are two pages.)
- Create an Excel spreadsheet, and in one column, enter the numbers 1 through 64 in
successive cells. Now, follow the directions to fill in the adjacent columns.
- Finish work on your Python programs from homework 3, to find the number the user guessed.
