English Language & Usage Asked by Wallflower on December 1, 2020
What is another alternative to "computations that are time consuming"?
I’ve heard the expression "computationally expensive" but I am not sure whether it refers to the timespan of the simulation or if the Memory is also included.
I am not very technical, I’m still learning.
I would very much appreciate it if you go easy on me.
Thanks in advance 🙂
You might be interested in the term time complexity. Your
computations that are time consuming
could be phrased as
computations with high time complexity
If you want to refer to resources more generally, use complexity. Then you can say
computations with high complexity
which refers to the use of resources, not the difficulty of any mathematics. But quite often, the unqualified complexity is taken to mean just its time complexity.
