Question

Consider the following functions, foo() and bar():The time complexity of the functions foo()and bar() isint foo(int n){ if(n<=1) return 2n; return 8*foo(n−1);}int bar(int n){ if (n<=1)return 3n; return 3∗bar(n−1) +2*bar(n−1);}

Solution

The correct option is B O(n) for foo() and O(2n) for bar()
The recurrence relation for foo(n): T(n) = T(n1)+c; where c is a constant T(n) = O(n)The time recurrence for bar(n); T(n) = 2T(n1)+c; c is a constant T(n) = O(2n)
