  2. Block swap algorithms - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Block_swap_algorithms

    The reversal algorithm is the simplest to explain, using rotations. A rotation is an in-place reversal of array elements. This method swaps two elements of an array from outside in within a range. The rotation works for an even or odd number of array elements. The reversal algorithm uses three in-place rotations to accomplish an in-place block ...

  3. Cycle sort - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cycle_sort

    The following Python implementation [1] [circular reference] performs cycle sort on an array, counting the number of writes to that array that were needed to sort it. Python def cycle_sort ( array ) -> int : """Sort an array in place and return the number of writes.""" writes = 0 # Loop through the array to find cycles to rotate.

    function reverse_in_place(a[0..n-1]) for i from 0 to floor((n-2)/2) tmp := a[i] a[i] := a[n − 1 − i] a[n − 1 − i] := tmp And for further clarification check leet code problem number 88 As another example, many sorting algorithms rearrange arrays into sorted order in-place, including: bubble sort , comb sort , selection sort , insertion ...

  5. 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 ).

  6. Block sort - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Block_Sort

    The outer loop of block sort is identical to a bottom-up merge sort, where each level of the sort merges pairs of subarrays, A and B, in sizes of 1, then 2, then 4, 8, 16, and so on, until both subarrays combined are the array itself.

  7. Fisher–Yates shuffle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fisher–Yates_shuffle

    Write down the numbers from 1 through N. Pick a random number k between one and the number of unstruck numbers remaining (inclusive). Counting from the low end, strike out the kth number not yet struck out, and write it down at the end of a separate list. Repeat from step 2 until all the numbers have been struck out.

  8. Selection sort - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Selection_sort

    In computer science, selection sort is an in-place comparison sorting algorithm.It has a O(n 2) time complexity, which makes it inefficient on large lists, and generally performs worse than the similar insertion sort.

  9. Integer sorting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integer_sorting

    In computer science, integer sorting is the algorithmic problem of sorting a collection of data values by integer keys. Algorithms designed for integer sorting may also often be applied to sorting problems in which the keys are floating point numbers, rational numbers, or text strings. [1]
