Suppose that f(n) and g(n) are functions of the positive integers n which take positive (but not necessarily integer) values for all n. We say that f(n) = 0(g(n)) (or simply f = 0(g)) if there exists a constant C such that f(n) is always less than C · g(n). For example, 2n2 + 3n − 3 = 0(n2) (namely, it is not hard to prove that the left side is always less than 3n2, so 3 can be chosen as the constant C in the definition).
