  2. Cycle sort - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cycle_sort

    When the array contains only duplicates of a relatively small number of items, a constant-time perfect hash function can greatly speed up finding where to put an item 1, turning the sort from Θ(n 2) time to Θ(n + k) time, where k is the total number of hashes. The array ends up sorted in the order of the hashes, so choosing a hash function ...

  3. Duplicate code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duplicate_code

    In computer programming, duplicate code is a sequence of source code that occurs more than once, either within a program or across different programs owned or maintained by the same entity. Duplicate code is generally considered undesirable for a number of reasons. [ 1 ]

  4. Count-distinct problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Count-distinct_problem

    Thus, the existence of duplicates does not affect the value of the extreme order statistics. There are other estimation techniques other than min/max sketches. The first paper on count-distinct estimation [7] describes the Flajolet–Martin algorithm, a bit pattern sketch. In this case, the elements are hashed into a bit vector and the sketch ...

  6. Cycle detection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cycle_detection

    In computer science, cycle detection or cycle finding is the algorithmic problem of finding a cycle in a sequence of iterated function values. For any function f that maps a finite set S to itself, and any initial value x 0 in S , the sequence of iterated function values

  7. Fisher–Yates shuffle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fisher–Yates_shuffle

    If you simply divide the numbers by 16 and take the remainder, you will find that the numbers 0–3 occur about 17% more often than others. This is because 16 does not evenly divide 100: the largest multiple of 16 less than or equal to 100 is 6×16 = 96, and it is the numbers in the incomplete range 96–99 that cause the bias.

  8. ZPE Programming Environment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ZPE_Programming_Environment

    ZPE features many built-in functions including functions that simplify mathematical problems such as the greater_than_all function, the to_binary, to_octal and to_hexadecimal functions as well as many functions to streamline processing of arrays such as list_process, list_find_duplicates and list_auto_populate.

  9. SimHash - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simhash

    A large scale evaluation has been conducted by Google in 2006 [2] to compare the performance of Minhash and Simhash [3] algorithms. In 2007 Google reported using Simhash for duplicate detection for web crawling [4] and using Minhash and LSH for Google News personalization.
