Amazing article !

I have a computer science degree and only learned about Big O. But this is wider and more fair to many practical bad algorithms like quick sort.

And of course I fell in love with your last paragraph. I'll add it to every Performance related article like yours

Thanks Maxi!

Yes, Big Omega and Big Theta are less well-known. That's why I wanted to make an article about that. When you look at the three together, it is not that hard to understand. In fact, I believe that it helps understand Big O better.

As for the last paragraph, I couldn't end without mentioning the importance of clean code! I did not want this article to foster premature optimization 😉
