11. Sorting Algorithms

Open Data Structures in Java

This chapter discusses algorithms for sorting a set of items. This might seem like a strange topic for a book on data structures, but there are several good reasons for including it here. The most obv...

Think Data Structures

Computer science departments have an unhealthy obsession with sort algorithms. Based on the amount of time CS students spend on the topic, you would think that choosing sort algorithms is the cornerst...

Sorting Algorithms

Python in Plain English

In the first pass, when i = 0, lst[0] = 54 and lst[1] = 26 . Since 26 < 54, and we want to sort the array in ascending order, we will swap the positions of 54 and 26 so that 26 comes before 54. This…

Binary searches only work on lists that are in order. So how do programs get a list in order? How does a program sort a list of items when the user clicks a column heading, or otherwise needs somethi...

Unconventional Sorting Algorithms

Python in Plain English

Sorting is a fundamental necessity in computer programming, but not all sorting algorithms were “created equal”. You probably know that the best complexity for comparison-based sorting is O(NlogN)…

11.1 Comparison-Based Sorting

Open Data Structures in Java

In this section, we present three sorting algorithms: merge-sort, quicksort, and heap-sort. Each of these algorithms takes an input array and sorts the elements of into non-decreasing order in (expect...
