For this activity, you and your partner will take turns calculating the time complexity using Big O notation for a problem you solved previously. Think of this exercise as being more collaborative and less formal than other whiteboarding exercises. In other words, you and your partner should communicate freely and work together to come up with the appropriate calculation.
- You and your partner should each choose a different problem that you've already solved
- Share your solution to the chosen problem either on a whiteboard or via a screenshare
- Determine the time complexity for your solution
- Explain your thinking and work with your partner to come up with the answer
- Take turns typing or whiteboarding
- Plan to start the conversation and whiteboard/type when evaluating your own solution
- Remember to use the correct notation, e.g. O(n) or O(1)
