  2. Timsort - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timsort

    Timsort is a hybrid, stable sorting algorithm, derived from merge sort and insertion sort, designed to perform well on many kinds of real-world data.It was implemented by Tim Peters in 2002 for use in the Python programming language.

    If you have an input of 2,5,9,3,6,2,4 If the third input (9) is chosen as pivot after the partition function it will be: - 2,5,4,3,6,9,2 New pivot value = 9 However the last element 2 which is smaller than the pivot occurs to the right of the pivot value. The correct Partition function should be: -

    Because it uses arrays of length k + 1 and n, the total space usage of the algorithm is also O(n + k). [1] For problem instances in which the maximum key value is significantly smaller than the number of items, counting sort can be highly space-efficient, as the only storage it uses other than its input and output arrays is the Count array ...

  6. CPython - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CPython

    CPython is the reference implementation of the Python programming language. Written in C and Python, CPython is the default and most widely used implementation of the Python language. CPython can be defined as both an interpreter and a compiler as it compiles Python code into bytecode before interpreting it.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fisher–Yates_shuffle

    [9] [10] The only difference between Durstenfeld's and Sattolo's algorithms is that in the latter, in step 2 above, the random number j is chosen from the range between 1 and i−1 (rather than between 1 and i) inclusive. This simple change modifies the algorithm so that the resulting permutation always consists of a single cycle.

  8. Bubble sort - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bubble_sort

    Bubble sort, sometimes referred to as sinking sort, is a simple sorting algorithm that repeatedly steps through the input list element by element, comparing the current element with the one after it, swapping their values if needed.

  9. Introsort - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Introsort

    Introsort or introspective sort is a hybrid sorting algorithm that provides both fast average performance and (asymptotically) optimal worst-case performance. It begins with quicksort, it switches to heapsort when the recursion depth exceeds a level based on (the logarithm of) the number of elements being sorted and it switches to insertion sort when the number of elements is below some threshold.
