How to demonstrate bigO cost of algorithms?

[Rusty Shackleford]

Thanks for that explanation -- it really helped.  I forgot that O(n) can
translate into dn + c where d and c are constants.

I think I'm going to keep trying to figure out ways to demonstrate big O
stuff, because I just don't understand it until I see it in a
non-abstract sense.

Thanks again.
