  2. Merge sort - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Merge_sort

    In computer science, Merge Sort (also commonly spelled as mergesort and as merge-sort [2]) is an efficient, general-purpose, and comparison-based sorting algorithm.Most implementations produce a stable sort, which means that the relative order of equal elements is the same in the input and output.

  3. Merge algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Merge_algorithm

    A list containing a single element is, by definition, sorted. Repeatedly merge sublists to create a new sorted sublist until the single list contains all elements. The single list is the sorted list. The merge algorithm is used repeatedly in the merge sort algorithm. An example merge sort is given in the illustration. It starts with an unsorted ...

  5. Sorting algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sorting_algorithm

    For instance, the array might be subdivided into chunks of a size that will fit in RAM, the contents of each chunk sorted using an efficient algorithm (such as quicksort), and the results merged using a k-way merge similar to that used in merge sort. This is faster than performing either merge sort or quicksort over the entire list. [40] [41]

  6. k-way merge algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/K-way_merge_algorithm

    k-way merge algorithms usually take place in the second stage of external sorting algorithms, much like they do for merge sort. A multiway merge allows for the files outside of memory to be merged in fewer passes than in a binary merge. If there are 6 runs that need be merged then a binary merge would need to take 3 merge passes, as opposed to ...

  7. Polyphase merge sort - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyphase_merge_sort

    A polyphase merge sort is a variation of a bottom-up merge sort that sorts a list using an initial uneven distribution of sub-lists (runs), primarily used for external sorting, and is more efficient than an ordinary merge sort when there are fewer than eight external working files (such as a tape drive or a file on a hard drive).

  9. Block sort - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Block_Sort

    Block sort, or block merge sort, is a sorting algorithm combining at least two merge operations with an insertion sort to arrive at O(n log n) (see Big O notation) in-place stable sorting time. It gets its name from the observation that merging two sorted lists, A and B , is equivalent to breaking A into evenly sized blocks , inserting each A ...
