Pseudocode is commonly used in textbooks and scientific publications related to computer science and numerical computation to describe algorithms in a way that is accessible to programmers regardless of their familiarity with specific programming languages. Textbooks often include an introduction explaining the conventions in use, and the ...

The following listing shows the above mentioned three step algorithm as pseudocode and shows how the algorithm works in principle. [5] In the following, A is the unsorted data, k is the oversampling factor, discussed later, and p is the number of splitters.
This algorithm, an example of bottom-up dynamic programming, is discussed, with variants, in the 1974 article The String-to-string correction problem by Robert A. Wagner and Michael J. Fischer. [ 4 ] This is a straightforward pseudocode implementation for a function LevenshteinDistance that takes two strings, s of length m , and t of length n ...
A simple example is fitting a line in two dimensions to a set of observations. Assuming that this set contains both inliers, i.e., points which approximately can be fitted to a line, and outliers, points which cannot be fitted to this line, a simple least squares method for line fitting will generally produce a line with a bad fit to the data including inliers and outliers.
Insertion sort is a simple sorting algorithm that builds the final sorted array (or list) one item at a time by comparisons. It is much less efficient on large lists than more advanced algorithms such as quicksort, heapsort, or merge sort. However, insertion sort provides several advantages:
Here the example is shown starting from odds, after the first step of the algorithm. Thus, on the k th step all the remaining multiples of the k th prime are removed from the list, which will thereafter contain only numbers coprime with the first k primes (cf. wheel factorization ), so that the list will start with the next prime, and all the ...
The pseudocode below performs the GS algorithm to obtain a phase distribution for the plane "Source", such that its Fourier transform would have the amplitude distribution of the plane "Target". The Gerchberg-Saxton algorithm is one of the most prevalent methods used to create computer-generated holograms. [2]
