  2. Insertion sort - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Insertion_sort

    Suppose there exists a function called Insert designed to insert a value into a sorted sequence at the beginning of an array. It operates by beginning at the end of the sequence and shifting each element one place to the right until a suitable position is found for the new element.

  3. Sequence container (C++) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sequence_container_(C++)

    In fact, any insertion can potentially invalidate all iterators. Also, if the allocated storage in the vector is too small to insert elements, a new array is allocated, all elements are copied or moved to the new array, and the old array is freed. deque, list and forward_list all support fast insertion or removal of elements anywhere in the ...

  4. Array (data type) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Array_(data_type)

    An array data structure can be mathematically modeled as an abstract data structure (an abstract array) with two operations get(A, I): the data stored in the element of the array A whose indices are the integer tuple I. set(A, I, V): the array that results by setting the value of that element to V. These operations are required to satisfy the ...

  5. Binary heap - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_heap

    [6] [7] The heap array is assumed to have its first element at index 1. // Push a new item to a (max) heap and then extract the root of the resulting heap. // heap: an array representing the heap, indexed at 1 // item: an element to insert // Returns the greater of the two between item and the root of heap.

  6. Sorting algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sorting_algorithm

    It works by taking elements from the list one by one and inserting them in their correct position into a new sorted list similar to how one puts money in their wallet. [22] In arrays, the new list and the remaining elements can share the array's space, but insertion is expensive, requiring shifting all following elements over by one.

  7. Library sort - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Library_sort

    Insertion: Inserting the element in the position found and swapping the following elements by 1 position till an empty space is hit. This is done in logarithmic time, with high probability. Re-Balancing: Inserting spaces between each pair of elements in the array. The cost of rebalancing is linear in the number of elements already inserted. As ...

  8. Dynamic array - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_array

    The dynamic array has performance similar to an array, with the addition of new operations to add and remove elements: Getting or setting the value at a particular index (constant time) Iterating over the elements in order (linear time, good cache performance) Inserting or deleting an element in the middle of the array (linear time)

  9. Array (data structure) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Array_(data_structure)

    In computer science, an array is a data structure consisting of a collection of elements (values or variables), of same memory size, each identified by at least one array index or key. An array is stored such that the position of each element can be computed from its index tuple by a mathematical formula.
