Problem Set 4

Problem Set 4: Countess of Functions

Problem Set 4 is available here: ps4.pdf (you will also need the ps4.zip file). It is due on Friday, 18 October at 4:19pm.

This assignment involves both PDF and Jupyter parts, and you should submit both your ps4.ipynb and ps4.pdf files as attachments in collab. As far as we know, none of the problems are impossible (we may be wrong, of course, but none of them are intentionally impossible to solve).

The purpose of this assignment is to continue to develop your understanding of the asymptotic operators, and to understand deeply the results in Chapter 5 of the textbook.

Updated 13 Oct 2019: The original problem 4b asked you to prove something impossible. The question we meant to as is to prove that n is in o(n log n). This is corrected now, sorry for the confusion and thanks to Gustavo Moreira for pointing out the problem.
