Computer science theory

  1. Что такое инвариант цикла?

  2. Что такое сложность алгоритма? O(n) нотация. O(???) для операций с NSArray, NSDictionary, запрос в БД (индексированный VS. неиндексированный)

  3. CS data structures (linked list, binary tree, array)

  4. Различия аутентификации, авторизации
