An algorithm written recursively have same time complexity when it is written in iterative manner?
Added by Aneesha V.
Step 1
A recursive algorithm is an algorithm that solves a problem by breaking it down into smaller instances of the same problem and using the solutions of these smaller instances to construct the solution for the original problem. Show more…

The complexity of a computer algorithm is the number of operations or steps the algorithm needs to complete its task assuming there are $n$ pieces of input (for example, the number of steps needed to put $n$ numbers in ascending order). Four algorithms for doing the same task have complexities of $\mathrm{A}: n^{3 / 2}, \mathrm{B}: n \log _{2} n, \mathrm{C}: n\left(\log _{2} n\right)^{2},$ and $\mathrm{D}: \sqrt{n} \log _{2} n .$ Rank the algorithms in order of increasing efficiency for large values of $n$ Graph the complexities as they vary with $n$ and comment on your observations.

L'Hôpital's Rule
Write pseudo-code for each of the following two algorithms to raise an integer to an integer power. In both cases, assume n = 2m. Analyze the run-time complexity of each algorithm in terms of the number of multiplications performed (determine Θ(n)). (a) Nave: x^n = x * x^(n-1) x^0 = 1 (b) Repeated Squaring: x^n = (x^{n/2})^2 x^0 = 1
