Answer 1

To assess the quality of an algorithm, the following three measures are typically used:

1. Time complexity - This measures how the runtime of an algorithm increases with the size of the input data.

2. Resource consumption - This considers the memory and other resources that an algorithm consumes while running.

3. Reusability - This reflects how easily the algorithm or parts of it can be reused in different programs or contexts.

So the correct answers are:

• Time complexity
• Resource consumption
• Reusability
