  2. SQ3R - Wikipedia

    How does this information help me? Read (R 1) Use the background work done with "S" and "Q" to begin reading actively. This means reading to answer the questions raised under "Q". Passive reading, in contrast, results in merely reading without engaging with the study material. Recite (R 2) The second "R" refers to the part known as "Recite."

  3. Sorting algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sorting_algorithm

    Merge sort. In computer science, a sorting algorithm is an algorithm that puts elements of a list into an order.The most frequently used orders are numerical order and lexicographical order, and either ascending or descending.

  4. Python syntax and semantics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_syntax_and_semantics

    The syntax of the Python programming language is the set of rules that defines how a Python program will be written and interpreted (by both the runtime system and by human readers). The Python language has many similarities to Perl , C , and Java .

  5. Incremental reading - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incremental_reading

    "Incremental reading" means "reading in portions". Instead of a linear reading of articles one at a time, the method works by keeping a large list of electronic articles or books (often dozens or hundreds) and reading parts of several articles in each session. The user prioritizes articles in the reading list.

  6. Leitner system - Wikipedia

    The Leitner system [1] [2] [3] is a widely used method of efficiently using flashcards that was proposed by the German science journalist Sebastian Leitner in 1972. [ 4 ] [ 5 ] It is a simple implementation of the principle of spaced repetition , where cards are reviewed at increasing intervals.

    In computer science, arranging in an ordered sequence is called "sorting".Sorting is a common operation in many applications, and efficient algorithms have been developed to perform it.

  8. First-fit-decreasing bin packing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First-fit-decreasing_bin...

    In short: FFD orders the items by descending size, and then calls first-fit bin packing. An equivalent description of the FFD algorithm is as follows. Order the items from largest to smallest. While there are remaining items: Open a new empty bin. For each item from largest to smallest: If it can fit into the current bin, insert it.

  9. Selection sort - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Selection_sort

    In computer science, selection sort is an in-place comparison sorting algorithm.It has a O(n 2) time complexity, which makes it inefficient on large lists, and generally performs worse than the similar insertion sort.
