Feb 18, 2015 at 10:49 comment added Kalissar My computer science professor always said that, when it comes to Computer Science, log(n) is a constant.
Feb 18, 2015 at 8:19 comment added Raphael We have to be careful with the term "upper bounded" now. $n$ is not an upper bound of $10^{20} \log n$ in the usual sense, only asymptotically.
