Related problems include approximate sorting (sorting a sequence to within a certain amount of the correct order), partial sorting (sorting only the k smallest elements of a list, or finding the k smallest elements, but unordered) and selection (computing the kth smallest element). These can be solved inefficiently by a total sort, but more ...
Bubble/Shell sort: Exchange two adjacent elements if they are out of order. Repeat until array is sorted. Insertion sort: Scan successive elements for an out-of-order item, then insert the item in the proper place. Selection sort: Find the smallest (or biggest) element in the array, and put it in the proper place. Swap it with the value in the ...
To use column-major order in a row-major environment, or vice versa, for whatever reason, one workaround is to assign non-conventional roles to the indexes (using the first index for the column and the second index for the row), and another is to bypass language syntax by explicitly computing positions in a one-dimensional array.
As a baseline algorithm, selection of the th smallest value in a collection of values can be performed by the following two steps: . Sort the collection; If the output of the sorting algorithm is an array, retrieve its th element; otherwise, scan the sorted sequence to find the th element.
When a column contains repeated values, sorting the column should maintain the original order of rows within each subset that shares the same value. This is known as stable sorting. As a result, multi-key sorting (sorting by primary, secondary, tertiary keys, etc.) can be achieved by sorting the least significant key first and the most ...
To turn a regular search tree into an order statistic tree, the nodes of the tree need to store one additional value, which is the size of the subtree rooted at that node (i.e., the number of nodes below it). All operations that modify the tree must adjust this information to preserve the invariant that size[x] = size[left[x]] + size[right[x]] + 1
those of cubefree order at most 50000 (395 703 groups); those of squarefree order; those of order p n for n at most 6 and p prime; those of order p 7 for p = 3, 5, 7, 11 (907 489 groups); those of order pq n where q n divides 2 8, 3 6, 5 5 or 7 4 and p is an arbitrary prime which differs from q; those whose orders factorise into at most 3 ...
The Classical orders of columns are defined by 5 types of columns: Greek Doric order; Ionic order; Corinthian order; Roman Tuscan order;
