有没有O(1/n)种算法?
或者其他小于O(1)的数?

我经常用O(1/n)来描述随着输入变大而变小的概率——例如,在log2(n)次投掷中,一枚均匀硬币背面朝上的概率是O(1/n)。

我不懂数学,但这个概念似乎是寻找一个函数,需要更少的时间,你添加更多的输入?在这种情况下,怎么样:
def f( *args ):
if len(args)<1:
args[1] = 10
当添加可选的第二个参数时,此函数会更快,因为否则必须赋值它。我意识到这不是一个方程,但维基百科页面说大o通常也应用于计算系统。
我不知道算法,但复杂度小于O(1)出现在随机算法中。实际上,o(1)(小o)小于o(1)这种复杂性通常出现在随机算法中。例如,如你所说,当某个事件的概率为1/n阶时,他们用o(1)表示。或者当他们想说某件事发生的概率很高时(例如1 - 1/n),他们用1 - o(1)表示。
有次线性算法。事实上,Bayer-Moore搜索算法就是一个很好的例子。
那么这个呢:
void FindRandomInList(list l)
{
while(1)
{
int rand = Random.next();
if (l.contains(rand))
return;
}
}
随着列表大小的增加,程序的预期运行时间会减少。
It may be possible to construct an algorithm that is O(1/n). One example would be a loop that iterates some multiple of f(n)-n times where f(n) is some function whose value is guaranteed to be greater than n and the limit of f(n)-n as n approaches infinity is zero. The calculation of f(n) would also need to be constant for all n. I do not know off hand what f(n) would look like or what application such an algorithm would have, in my opinion however such a function could exist but the resulting algorithm would have no purpose other than to prove the possibility of an algorithm with O(1/n).
