  2. Quicksort - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quicksort

    Quicksort is an efficient, general-purpose sorting algorithm. Quicksort was developed by British computer scientist Tony Hoare in 1959 [1] and published in 1961. [2] It is still a commonly used algorithm for sorting. Overall, it is slightly faster than merge sort and heapsort for randomized data, particularly on larger distributions. [3]

  3. Bubble sort - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bubble_sort

    More efficient algorithms such as quicksort, timsort, or merge sort are used by the sorting libraries built into popular programming languages such as Python and Java. [ 2 ] [ 3 ] However, if parallel processing is allowed, bubble sort sorts in O(n) time, making it considerably faster than parallel implementations of insertion sort or selection ...

  4. Quickselect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quickselect

    Quickselect uses the same overall approach as quicksort, choosing one element as a pivot and partitioning the data in two based on the pivot, accordingly as less than or greater than the pivot. However, instead of recursing into both sides, as in quicksort, quickselect only recurses into one side – the side with the element it is searching for.

  5. Multi-key quicksort - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multi-key_quicksort

    Multi-key quicksort, also known as three-way radix quicksort, [1] is an algorithm for sorting strings.This hybrid of quicksort and radix sort was originally suggested by P. Shackleton, as reported in one of C.A.R. Hoare's seminal papers on quicksort; [2]: 14 its modern incarnation was developed by Jon Bentley and Robert Sedgewick in the mid-1990s. [3]

  7. Selection algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Selection_algorithm

    [7] Quickselect chooses the pivot uniformly at random from the input values. It can be described as a prune and search algorithm, [9] a variant of quicksort, with the same pivoting strategy, but where quicksort makes two recursive calls to sort the two subcollections and , quickselect only makes one of these two calls.
