Big-O Algorithm Complexity Cheat Sheet PDF

This document provides a cheat sheet summarizing the time and space complexity of common data structures and algorithms. It lists the average, worst case, and best case time complexity for operations like search, insertion, and deletion on data structures including arrays, linked lists, stacks, queues, hash tables, and trees. It also summarizes the time and space complexity of common sorting algorithms like quicksort, mergesort, heapsort, insertion sort, and selection sort. The document encourages learning more about algorithms from recommended books and offers a poster version of the Big-O cheat sheet.
