What is the time complexity T(n) of the nested loops
below? For simplicity, you may assume that n is a power of
2. That is, n = 2k for some positive integer k.
:
i = n;
while (i >= 1){
j = i;
while (j <= n) {
<body of the inner while loop > //
Needs (1).
j = 2 * j;
}
i = i/2;
}

hello I'm not sure about what I'm going to say . please tell me if you think it's wrong.
at first let's write some steps of it .
1) i = j = n
2) i = n/2 , j = n/2 --> j = n
3) i = n/4 , j = n/4 --> j = n/2 --> j = n
4) i = n/8 , j = n/8 --> j = n/4 --> j = n/2 , j = n
.
.
.
now if we count ,
the number of n , which j is equal to is log(n) ,
the number of n/2 , which j is equal to is log(n)-1 ,
the number of n/4 , which j is equal to is log(n)-2 ,
the number of n/8 , which j is equal to is log(n)-3 ,
and so on ,
so the result is summation log(n) - i , which i is from 0 to log(n) ,
we write log(n) out of Sigma and multiple it with log(n) + 1,( if we write Sigma term we have log(n) +1 , log(n))
and summation i , which i is from 0 to log(n) , is equal to (log(n)+1)(log(n))/2
