An algorithm is designed to count how many heart rate readings in a dataset are below 40 beats per minute (bpm).
SET low_count TO 0
FOR EACH reading FROM heart_rates DO
IF (reading < 40) THEN
SET low_count TO low_count + 1
END IF
END FOREACH
SEND 'Low heart rate occurrences: ' & low_count TO DISPLAY
A small dataset is sorted in ascending order and stored in the array heart_rates as follows:
42, 46, 51, 55, 63, 70
Describe one inefficiency when executing this algorithm with this dataset.
