Algorithms (as you might know) are steps of how to do some tasks. When you cook, you follow a recipe (or an algorithm) to prepare a dish. Let's say you want to make a pizza.

Assuming the statements from 1 to 3 are `O(1)`, we would have a runtime of `O(n * m)`.
If instead of `m`, you had to iterate on `n` again, then it would be `O(n^2)`. Another typical case is having a function inside a loop. Let's see how to deal with that next.

[[big-o-function-statement]]
*Function call statements*

When you calculate your programs' time complexity and invoke a function, you need to be aware of its runtime. If you created the function, that might be a simple inspection of the implementation. However, if you are using a library function, you might infer it from the language/library documentation.
