Wow! Final Assignment!



While preparing for the assignment 3,  I had a hard time in forming a chain of inequalities and simplifying the expression of  Ω(f). In case of big O, I could form a chain very smoothly but when I tried to form a chain in Ω(f), I was stuck on the final chaining field.
That is, when I tried to form a chain for 5n³ -3n² +2n +3 ∈ Ω(2³ - n² + n +1)

5n³ -3n² +2n +3≥ 5n³ - 3n²
                          ≥ 5n³ - 3n³
                          = 2n³
                          = c'n³
                          = c'(2n³-n³)
                          ≥ c'(2n³-n²) 

I was stuck here because if n + 1 is added, then c'(2n³-n²) ≤ c'(2³ - n² + n +1).
So, I had to do in a different way to connect the chain. I still don't know which chain I formed wrongly but I am going to figure out before the final exam.
I can't believe that I just have the final exam left. Doesn't time fly?  We should live life to the full.
