Computational complexity of Fibonacci Sequence

Question

I understand Big-O notation, but I don\'t know how to calculate it for many functions. In particular, I\'ve been trying to figure out the computational complexity of the nai

Answer 1

It is bounded on the lower end by 2^(n/2) and on the upper end by 2^n (as noted in other comments). And an interesting fact of that recursive implementation is that it has a tight asymptotic bound of Fib(n) itself. These facts can be summarized:

T(n) = Ω(2^(n/2))  (lower bound)
T(n) = O(2^n)   (upper bound)
T(n) = Θ(Fib(n)) (tight bound)

The tight bound can be reduced further using its closed form if you like.
