What are loop cards?

Loop cards are a great game that can be played individually or as a class. They are perfect for review key vocabulary or questions at the end of a topic or when revising for an exam.

Instructions

  1. Cut out the cards from the paper horizontally (but don't cut them in half!) and then shuffle them.
  2. Now start joining each question on the right hand side of the card to the matching answer on the next card.
  3. Carry on until all the cards loop together and you have competed the game!

Hint: Make sure that you set your paper to portrait to print 4 cards per sheet of A4 paper.

Edit Vocab

The amount of time it takes to complete a task as the input size increases.
Balanced Binary Search Tree
It is a binary search tree where the heights of the two subtrees of any node differ by at most one.
Best-Case Performance
The time or space complexity of an algorithm when it receives the best input possible.
Complexity
A measure of how much time and/or space is required to execute an algorithm or program.
Merge
The process of combining two or more sorted sub-arrays into a single sorted array.
O(N)
The notation used to indicate linear complexity, where n is the size of the input.
Efficiency
The speed and effectiveness with which a task is completed, measured in terms of time and resources used.
Linear Time Complexity
A measure of time complexity in which the execution time increases linearly with the size of the input.
Logarithmic Time Complexity
The time complexity that demonstrates a gradual increase in time required with an increase in input size, following a logarithmic pattern.
Bubble Sort
Algorithm that repeatedly compares adjacent items in a list or array and swaps them until everything is sorted.
