  2. Heapsort - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heapsort

    procedure siftUp(a, end) is input: a is the array, which heap-ordered up to end-1. end is the node to sift up. while end > 0 parent := iParent(end) if a[parent] < a[end] then (out of max-heap order) swap(a[parent], a[end]) end := parent (continue sifting up) else return procedure heapify(a, count) is (start with a trivial single-element heap ...

  3. Best, worst and average case - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Best,_worst_and_average_case

    Heapify takes O(n) time and then removing elements from the heap is O(1) time for each of the n elements. The run time grows to O(nlog(n)) if all elements must be distinct. Bogosort has O(n) time when the elements are sorted on the first iteration. In each iteration all elements are checked if in order.

  4. Integer sorting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integer_sorting

    The atomic heap is a B-tree in which each tree node is represented as a Q-heap; it allows constant time priority queue operations (and therefore sorting) for sets of (log N) O(1) items. Andersson et al. (1998) provide a randomized algorithm called signature sort that allows for linear time sorting of sets of up to 2 O ((log w ) 1/2 − ε ...

  5. Sorting algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sorting_algorithm

    When the cards are sorted by rank with a stable sort, the two 5s must remain in the same order in the sorted output that they were originally in. When they are sorted with a non-stable sort, the 5s may end up in the opposite order in the sorted output. Stable sort algorithms sort equal elements in the same order that they appear in the input.

  6. Adaptive heap sort - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adaptive_heap_sort

    Adaptive heap sort is a variant of heap sort that seeks optimality (asymptotically optimal) with respect to the lower bound derived with the measure of presortedness by taking advantage of the existing order in the data. In heap sort, for a data = ,,, …, , we put all n elements into the heap and then keep extracting the maximum (or minimum ...

  7. Smoothsort - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smoothsort

    In computer science, smoothsort is a comparison-based sorting algorithm.A variant of heapsort, it was invented and published by Edsger Dijkstra in 1981. [1] Like heapsort, smoothsort is an in-place algorithm with an upper bound of O(n log n) operations (see big O notation), [2] but it is not a stable sort.

    Date - Oldest on top. • Unread - Lists your unread emails on top. • Read - Lists your read emails on top. • Starred - Lists your starred emails on top. • Attachments - Lists your emails containing attachments on top. Sort options order may vary - They often won't show up in the same order based on the content in your folders.

  9. Merge algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Merge_algorithm

    Searching for the next smallest element to be output (find-min) and restoring heap order can now be done in O(log k) time (more specifically, 2⌊log k⌋ comparisons [6]), and the full problem can be solved in O(n log k) time (approximately 2n⌊log k⌋ comparisons). [6] [2]: 119–120
