This section did a lot of comparing and contrasting that we went over in detail in class. It was very clear but a lot less interesting because it seemed so repetitive.

This section was a really large chunk of information and took a few times to read to understand. The most confusing part was the sub linear time. Even though I don't have any specific questions, just the general topic confused me. I thought this chapter was pretty interesting although not very easy to read. It was a very good review and important to cover moving on into the next sections. I would rate readability an 8/10. | This section was a really large chunk of information and took a few times to read to understand. The most confusing part was the sub linear time.
