 Asymptotic Notations are languages that allows us to analyze an algorithm's running time by
 identifying its behavior as the input size for the algorithm increases. This is also known as
 an algorithm's growth rate. Does the algorithm suddenly become incredibly slow when the input

 Asymptotic Notation gives us the ability to answer these questions.

 ## Types of Asymptotic Notation
 
 In the first section of this doc we described how an Asymptotic Notation identifies the

+behavior of an algorithm as the input size changes. Let us imagine an algorithm as a function
 f, n as the input size, and f(n) being the running time. So for a given algorithm f, with input
 size n you get some resultant run time f(n). This results in a graph where the Y axis is the
 runtime, X axis is the input size, and plot points are the resultants of the amount of time
 for a given input size.
 
 You can label a function, or algorithm, with an Asymptotic Notation in many different ways.

+The most common is to analyze an algorithm by it's worst case. This is because if you determine an
 algorithm's run time or time complexity, by it's best case, what if it's best case is only obtained
 given at a low, unrealistic, input size? It is equivalent to having a 5 meter sprinting race.
 That isn't the best measurement.
