Given an input string S = ^ BANANA $ (step 1 in the table below), rotate it N times (step 2), where N = 8 is the length of the S string considering also the red ^ character representing the start of the string and the red $ character representing the 'EOF' pointer; these rotations, or circular shifts, are then sorted lexicographically (step 3).
Given two different words of the same length, say a = a 1 a 2...a k and b = b 1 b 2...b k, the order of the two words depends on the alphabetic order of the symbols in the first place i where the two words differ (counting from the beginning of the words): a < b if and only if a i < b i in the underlying order of the alphabet A.
In computer science, a suffix array is a sorted array of all suffixes of a string. It is a data structure used in, among others, full-text indices, data-compression algorithms, and the field of bibliometrics. Suffix arrays were introduced by Manber & Myers (1990) as a simple, space efficient alternative to suffix trees.
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.
Likewise, the LCP of A[2] = ab and A[3] = abaab is ab, so H[3] = 2. Augmenting the suffix array with the LCP array allows one to efficiently simulate top-down and bottom-up traversals of the suffix tree, [1] [2] speeds up pattern matching on the suffix array [3] and is a prerequisite for compressed suffix trees.

The Lyndon words over the two-symbol binary alphabet {0,1}, sorted by length and then lexicographically within each length class, form an infinite sequence that begins
One implementation can be described as arranging the data sequence in a two-dimensional array and then sorting the columns of the array using insertion sort. The worst-case time complexity of Shellsort is an open problem and depends on the gap sequence used, with known complexities ranging from O ( n 2 ) to O ( n 4/3 ) and Θ( n log 2 n ).
In computing, natural sort order (or natural sorting) is the ordering of strings in alphabetical order, except that multi-digit numbers are treated atomically, i.e., as if they were a single character. Natural sort order has been promoted as being more human-friendly ("natural") than machine-oriented, pure alphabetical sort order. [1]
