  2. Associative array - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Associative_array

    Another very simple implementation technique, usable when the keys are restricted to a narrow range, is direct addressing into an array: the value for a given key k is stored at the array cell A[k], or if there is no mapping for k then the cell stores a special sentinel value that indicates the lack of a mapping. This technique is simple and ...

  3. Range query (computer science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Range_query_(computer_science)

    Given a function that accepts an array, a range query (,) on an array = [,..,] takes two indices and and returns the result of when applied to the subarray [, …,].For example, for a function that returns the sum of all values in an array, the range query ⁡ (,) returns the sum of all values in the range [,].

  4. Misra–Gries summary - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Misra–Gries_summary

    In the field of streaming algorithms, Misra–Gries summaries are used to solve the frequent elements problem in the data stream model.That is, given a long stream of input that can only be examined once (and in some arbitrary order), the Misra-Gries algorithm [1] can be used to compute which (if any) value makes up a majority of the stream, or more generally, the set of items that constitute ...

  5. Foreach loop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foreach_loop

    The foreach statement in some languages has some defined order, processing each item in the collection from the first to the last. The foreach statement in many other languages, especially array programming languages, does not have any particular order.

  6. List comprehension - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_comprehension

    Here, the list [0..] represents , x^2>3 represents the predicate, and 2*x represents the output expression.. List comprehensions give results in a defined order (unlike the members of sets); and list comprehensions may generate the members of a list in order, rather than produce the entirety of the list thus allowing, for example, the previous Haskell definition of the members of an infinite list.

  7. Z-order curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Z-order_curve

    The Z-ordering can be used to efficiently build a quadtree (2D) or octree (3D) for a set of points. [4] [5] The basic idea is to sort the input set according to Z-order.Once sorted, the points can either be stored in a binary search tree and used directly, which is called a linear quadtree, [6] or they can be used to build a pointer based quadtree.

  8. Perfect hash function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perfect_hash_function

    In this case, the function value is just the position of each key in the sorted ordering of all of the keys. A simple implementation of order-preserving minimal perfect hash functions with constant access time is to use an (ordinary) perfect hash function to store a lookup table of the positions of each key.

  9. Counting sort - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Counting_sort

    Here input is the input array to be sorted, key returns the numeric key of each item in the input array, count is an auxiliary array used first to store the numbers of items with each key, and then (after the second loop) to store the positions where items with each key should be placed, k is the maximum value of the non-negative key values and ...
