The Order of Growth

State

An order of growth is a geometric prediction of cost as problem size increases — constant stays flat, linear grows with the input, other shapes follow.

Show

A commute that lengthens with every added stop is linear; a flat fare is constant.

Watch for

The shape predicts scale; the count at one size does not.
