  2. Comparison of programming languages (associative array)

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_programming...

    The user can search for elements in an associative array, and delete elements from the array. The following shows how multi-dimensional associative arrays can be simulated in standard AWK using concatenation and the built-in string-separator variable SUBSEP:

  3. Timsort - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timsort

    Timsort is a hybrid, stable sorting algorithm, derived from merge sort and insertion sort, designed to perform well on many kinds of real-world data.It was implemented by Tim Peters in 2002 for use in the Python programming language.

  4. Sorting algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sorting_algorithm

    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 ).

  5. Multi-key quicksort - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multi-key_quicksort

    Multi-key quicksort, also known as three-way radix quicksort, [1] is an algorithm for sorting strings.This hybrid of quicksort and radix sort was originally suggested by P. Shackleton, as reported in one of C.A.R. Hoare's seminal papers on quicksort; [2]: 14 its modern incarnation was developed by Jon Bentley and Robert Sedgewick in the mid-1990s. [3]

  6. List (abstract data type) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_(abstract_data_type)

    A singly-linked list structure, implementing a list with three integer elements. The term list is also used for several concrete data structures that can be used to implement abstract lists, especially linked lists and arrays. In some contexts, such as in Lisp programming, the term list may refer specifically to a linked list rather than an array.

  7. Comparison of programming languages (array) - Wikipedia

    is how one would use Fortran to create arrays from the even and odd entries of an array. Another common use of vectorized indices is a filtering operation. Consider a clipping operation of a sine wave where amplitudes larger than 0.5 are to be set to 0.5. Using S-Lang, this can be done by y = sin(x); y[where(abs(y)>0.5)] = 0.5;

  8. Array slicing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Array_slicing

    In computer programming, array slicing is an operation that extracts a subset of elements from an array and packages them as another array, possibly in a different dimension from the original. Common examples of array slicing are extracting a substring from a string of characters, the " ell " in "h ell o", extracting a row or column from a two ...

  9. Suffix array - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suffix_array

    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.
