The video tutorial explains why time is not used to measure code performance and introduces Big O notation as an alternative method. It covers the concept of complexity analysis, using examples to illustrate how Big O notation helps in understanding code efficiency. The tutorial includes a code example of a linear search to demonstrate Big O of N, emphasizing the relationship between the number of operations and inputs. The video concludes with a promise to explore other Big O notations in future lectures.
