  2. List of terms relating to algorithms and data structures

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_terms_relating_to...

    For algorithms and data structures not necessarily mentioned here, see list of algorithms and list of data structures. This list of terms was originally derived from the index of that document, and is in the public domain, as it was compiled by a Federal Government employee as part of a Federal Government work. Some of the terms defined are:

  3. Zen of Python - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zen_of_Python

    The Zen of Python is a collection of 19 "guiding principles" for writing computer programs that influence the design of the Python programming language. [1] Python code that aligns with these principles is often referred to as "Pythonic". [2] Software engineer Tim Peters wrote this set of principles and posted it on the Python mailing list in ...

  4. Program slicing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Program_slicing

    Based on the original definition of Weiser, [3] informally, a static program slice S consists of all statements in program P that may affect the value of variable v in a statement x. The slice is defined for a slicing criterion C=(x,v) where x is a statement in program P and v is variable in x.

  5. Skip list - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skip_list

    MemSQL uses lock-free skip lists as its prime indexing structure for its database technology. MuQSS, for the Linux kernel, is a cpu scheduler built on skip lists. [10] [11] Cyrus IMAP server offers a "skiplist" backend DB implementation [12] Lucene uses skip lists to search delta-encoded posting lists in logarithmic time. [citation needed]

  6. Analysis of algorithms - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analysis_of_algorithms

    A model of computation may be defined in terms of an abstract computer, e.g. Turing machine, and/or by postulating that certain operations are executed in unit time. For example, if the sorted list to which we apply binary search has n elements, and we can guarantee that each lookup of an element in the list can be done in unit time, then at ...

  7. Bogosort - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bogosort

    A sorting algorithm introduced in the 2011 Google Code Jam. [6] As long as the list is not in order, a subset of all elements is randomly permuted. If this subset is optimally chosen each time this is performed, the expected value of the total number of times this operation needs to be done is equal to the number of misplaced elements.

  8. Element distinctness problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Element_distinctness_problem

    In computational complexity theory, the element distinctness problem or element uniqueness problem is the problem of determining whether all the elements of a list are distinct. It is a well studied problem in many different models of computation.

  9. Algorithmic efficiency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algorithmic_efficiency

    Timsort sorts the list in time linearithmic (proportional to a quantity times its logarithm) in the list's length ((⁡)), but has a space requirement linear in the length of the list (()). If large lists must be sorted at high speed for a given application, timsort is a better choice; however, if minimizing the memory footprint of the sorting ...
