For example, an algorithm to add three numbers can have two steps: add the first two numbers in the first step and the result to the third number in the second step.

For example, it took researchers two years recently to factor a 232-digit number, even with hundreds of parallel computers. That’s why the RSA algorithm is so effective.

For example: (2 + 3i)(1 + 2i ... Suppose then that multiplying two real numbers costs $1 and adding them costs a ... In this divide-and-conquer algorithm, given two decimal numbers x and y, ...
