1.1 Priori Analysis and Posteriori Testing

Understanding Priory Analysis and Algorithm Testing

What is Priory Analysis?

• Priory analysis involves a detailed examination of algorithms to understand their functionality and performance metrics.

• It focuses on assessing the time and space complexity of a network, determining how much computational resources are consumed during execution.

Rate of Analysis

• The rate of analysis includes measuring execution time in seconds or milliseconds, as well as memory usage quantified in bytes.

• This process helps identify the efficiency of programs by running tests to evaluate their performance under various conditions.

Types of Algorithms

• Algorithms can be categorized as language-independent and hardware-independent, meaning they are not tied to specific programming languages or hardware configurations.
