72
What is the time complexity of the following code in Big O notation?
O(NLog2M) because big O accounts for the worst case scenario, which is going through Log2M operations N times. The operations for scanning in are disregarded because NLog2M is much bigger when considering large numbers, so even though in reality it’s more like O(N + M + NLog2M), Big O notation only accounts for the largest value.
