  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.

  4. Sorting algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sorting_algorithm

    Insertion sort is widely used for small data sets, while for large data sets an asymptotically efficient sort is used, primarily heapsort, merge sort, or quicksort. Efficient implementations generally use a hybrid algorithm , combining an asymptotically efficient algorithm for the overall sort with insertion sort for small lists at the bottom ...

  5. Lambda architecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lambda_architecture

    The two view outputs may be joined before presentation. The rise of lambda architecture is correlated with the growth of big data, real-time analytics, and the drive to mitigate the latencies of map-reduce. [1] Lambda architecture depends on a data model with an append-only, immutable data source that serves as a system of record.

  6. Sorting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sorting

    Sorting refers to ordering data in an increasing or decreasing manner according to some linear relationship among the data items. ordering : arranging items in a sequence ordered by some criterion; categorizing : grouping items with similar properties.

  7. 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. These passes through the list are repeated until no swaps have to be performed during a pass, meaning that the ...

  8. Sorted array - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sorted_array

    Sorted arrays are the most space-efficient data structure with the best locality of reference for sequentially stored data. [citation needed]Elements within a sorted array are found using a binary search, in O(log n); thus sorted arrays are suited for cases when one needs to be able to look up elements quickly, e.g. as a set or multiset data structure.

  9. Burrows–Wheeler transform - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burrows–Wheeler_transform

    The sorting should be done in colexicographic order (string read right-to-left), i.e. sorted (..., key = lambda s: s [::-1]) in Python. [4] The above control codes actually fail to satisfy EOF being the last character; the two codes are actually the first .
