- zamfi 5y agoI mean, it’s still logarithmic. What’s a constant among friends?
- chrismorgan 5y agoAll my algorithms are O(1).
- foxes 5y agoDropping constant factor does not seem that important to be honest. The important thing to be exposed to/take away was the logarithmic behaviour. I'm sure if you want to go be a seismologist you will quickly learn all the details. If people realise the magnitudes are exponentially more damaging , then isn't that sufficient for the general audience?
