大o符号表示算法与典型运行时不同的最坏情况。证明O(1/n)算法是O(1)算法很简单。根据定义, O(1/n)——> T(n) <= 1/n, for all n >= C > 0 O (1 / n)——> T (n) < = 1 / C,因为1 / n <所有n > = 1 / C = C O(1/n)——> O(1)，因为大O符号忽略常数(即C的值无关紧要)

O(1/n)并不小于O(1)这基本上意味着你拥有的数据越多，算法运行得越快。假设你有一个数组，如果它小于10100个元素就填充它，如果多于10100个元素就什么都不做。这个当然不是O(1/n)，而是O(-n):)太糟糕了，O大符号不允许负数。

没有比O(1)小的数 大o符号表示算法的最大复杂度

如果一个算法的运行时间是n³+ n²+ n + 5那么它就是O(n³) 低次在这里根本不重要，因为n ->正无穷，n^2与n^3相比是无关的

同样地，当n -> Inf时，O(1/n)与O(1)相比是不相关的，因此3 + O(1/n)将与O(1)相同，从而使O(1)的计算复杂度最小

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).

如果不管输入数据如何，答案都是一样的，那么你就有一个O(0)算法。

或者换句话说——在提交输入数据之前，答案就已经知道了 -这个功能可以优化-所以O(0)

这是一个简单的O(1/n)算法。它甚至做了一些有趣的事情!

function foo(list input) {
  int m;
  double output;

  m = (1/ input.size) * max_value;  
  output = 0;
  for (int i = 0; i < m; i++)
    output+= random(0,1);

  return output;
}

O(1/n) is possible as it describes how the output of a function changes given increasing size of input. If we are using the function 1/n to describe the number of instructions a function executes then there is no requirement that the function take zero instructions for any input size. Rather, it is that for every input size, n above some threshold, the number of instructions required is bounded above by a positive constant multiplied by 1/n. As there is no actual number for which 1/n is 0, and the constant is positive, then there is no reason why the function would constrained to take 0 or fewer instructions.
