Comments by "Kantan Coding" (@kantancoding) on "Big O Notation - Full Course" video.
Oh wow 🙃. You are absolutely right. I did not mean to use i for the nested loop. Good catch. Let me see if I can add that to my pinned comment.

Hey thanks for the feedback! Actually, technically asymptotic notation is a family of notations of which Big O is a member. This course is focused specifically on its use in computer science. That is, its use in classifying algorithms according to how their run time or space requirements grow as the input size grows. Yes Big O is also used in number theory but that does not mean that one needs to study number theory to learn concepts in computer science. Number theory is a branch of pure mathematics which is in no way a prerequisite for learning Big O in the context of computer science. This course focuses on Big O's use in computer science which is actually not that mathematically deep.

@AndoroidP Of course, it's no problem! I agree that understanding the reason for its usage is crucial. I didn't do a very good job of explaining its practical usage in the real world. Thank you very much, your feedback is very helpful 🙏
