Why is Analysis of Algorithm important? Last Updated : 12 Aug, 2025 Comments Improve Suggest changes 94 Likes Like Report Why is Performance of Algorithms Important ? There are many important things that should be taken care of, like user-friendliness, modularity, security, maintainability, etc. Why worry about performance? The answer to this is simple, we can have all the above things only if we have performance. So performance is like currency through which we can buy all the above things. Another reason for studying performance is - speed is fun! Why Analysis of Algorithms is important ?Algorithm analysis is an important part of computational complexity theory, which provides theoretical estimation for the required resources of an algorithm to solve a specific computational problem. Analysis of algorithms is the determination of the amount of time and space resources required to execute it.To predict the behavior of an algorithm for large inputs (Scalable Software).It is much more convenient to have simple measures for the efficiency of an algorithm than to implement the algorithm and test the efficiency every time a certain parameter in the underlying computer system changes.More importantly, by analyzing different algorithms, we can compare them to determine the best one for our purpose.Please refer the following links for the next articles.Asymptotic AnalysisWorst, Average and Best Case Analysis of AlgorithmsTypes of Asymptotic Notations in Complexity Analysis of Algorithms Comment T tripathipriyanshu1998 Follow 94 Improve T tripathipriyanshu1998 Follow 94 Improve Article Tags : DSA Explore DSA FundamentalsLogic Building Problems 2 min read Analysis of Algorithms 1 min read Data StructuresArray Data Structure 3 min read String in Data Structure 2 min read Hashing in Data Structure 2 min read Linked List Data Structure 2 min read Stack Data Structure 2 min read Queue Data Structure 2 min read Tree Data Structure 2 min read Graph Data Structure 3 min read Trie Data Structure 15+ min read AlgorithmsSearching Algorithms 2 min read Sorting Algorithms 3 min read Introduction to Recursion 14 min read Greedy Algorithms 3 min read Graph Algorithms 3 min read Dynamic Programming or DP 3 min read Bitwise Algorithms 4 min read AdvancedSegment Tree 2 min read Binary Indexed Tree or Fenwick Tree 15 min read Square Root (Sqrt) Decomposition Algorithm 15+ min read Binary Lifting 15+ min read Geometry 2 min read Interview PreparationInterview Corner 3 min read GfG160 3 min read Practice ProblemGeeksforGeeks Practice - Leading Online Coding Platform 6 min read Problem of The Day - Develop the Habit of Coding 5 min read Like
