Python Complexity Cheat Sheet ๐Ÿš€

๐Ÿ“ข New GitHub Repo: Python Complexity Cheat Sheet ๐Ÿš€

Okay, Let's come to the point (introduction at the end ๐Ÿค˜)

Hey Developers! ๐Ÿ‘‹

Iโ€™m thrilled to share that Iโ€™ve created a comprehensive Python Complexity Cheat Sheet ๐Ÿ for all the coders out there who want to write efficient and optimized Python code. This cheat sheet is designed to help you understand the average and worst-case complexities of operations across Pythonโ€™s built-in data structures.

๐Ÿ”— Repository Link:

๐Ÿ‘‰ Python Complexity Cheat Sheet


๐Ÿ’ก Why Did I Create This Repo?

Understanding the time complexity of operations is essential for writing scalable applications. Pythonโ€™s built-in data structures like lists, dictionaries, sets, and tuples are powerful but knowing their performance under different operations can make a huge difference.

This repo:

  • Summarizes complexities of common operations (e.g., append, pop, sort, etc.).
  • Covers lists, dictionaries, sets, tuples, and strings.
  • Is beginner-friendly and easy to reference during coding. โœ…

๐Ÿ“‚ Whatโ€™s Inside?

Hereโ€™s a sneak peek into what youโ€™ll find in the repo:

  1. Lists:

    • Operations like append, pop, remove, sort, and more.
    • Complexity tables for quick reference.
  2. Dictionaries:

    • Key-based operations (get, pop, setdefault) and iteration performance.
  3. Sets:

    • Methods like add, remove, union, intersection, and their costs.
  4. Tuples:

    • Immutable operations and their complexities.
  5. Strings:

    • Performance of slicing, searching, and concatenation.
  6. Overview:

    • A high-level summary comparing all data structures.

๐Ÿ“– How to Use This Repo?

  1. Clone the repo:
   git clone https://github.com/yourusername/python-complexity-cheatsheet.git
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode
  1. Bookmark it for quick reference during coding. โญ๏ธ

๐Ÿ™Œ Contributions Welcome!

If you find this repo helpful, feel free to:

  • Give it a โญ๏ธ on GitHub.
  • Share it with fellow developers.
  • Submit a pull request if you spot improvements or want to add more content.

๐ŸŒŸ Bonus Repo Coming Soon!

Iโ€™m also working on a Python DS Methods and Properties Cheat Sheet, where youโ€™ll find all the essential methods and properties for Pythonโ€™s data structures. Stay tuned! ๐Ÿ”ฅ

Okay, I did it here it is -> Python DS Methods and Properties Cheat Sheet


Letโ€™s write efficient Python code together! ๐Ÿโœจ

Okay, My Name is Jaimin Bariya, a Simple developer, AKA Cloud Boy, Follow me to learn together, Keep your eyes on my GitHub for good products (forget to make the project, shift your self to make a product, In short, don't make a project, make product).

Happy Coding! ๐Ÿ˜„
