  2. Z-order curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Z-order_curve

    The Z-ordering can be used to efficiently build a quadtree (2D) or octree (3D) for a set of points. [4] [5] The basic idea is to sort the input set according to Z-order.Once sorted, the points can either be stored in a binary search tree and used directly, which is called a linear quadtree, [6] or they can be used to build a pointer based quadtree.

  4. Sorting algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sorting_algorithm

    Insertion sort is a simple sorting algorithm that is relatively efficient for small lists and mostly sorted lists, and is often used as part of more sophisticated algorithms. 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]

  5. Sweep and prune - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sweep_and_prune

    Sweep and prune is also known as sort and sweep, [1] referred to this way in David Baraff's Ph.D. thesis in 1992. [2] Later works like the 1995 paper about I-COLLIDE by Jonathan D. Cohen et al. [ 3 ] refer to the algorithm as sweep and prune .

  6. Fisher–Yates shuffle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fisher–Yates_shuffle

    Finally, the sorting method has a simple parallel implementation, unlike the Fisher–Yates shuffle, which is sequential. A variant of the above method that has seen some use in languages that support sorting with user-specified comparison functions is to shuffle a list by sorting it with a comparison function that returns random values.

  7. Generator (computer programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generator_(computer...

    In Python, a generator can be thought of as an iterator that contains a frozen stack frame. Whenever next() is called on the iterator, Python resumes the frozen frame, which executes normally until the next yield statement is reached. The generator's frame is then frozen again, and the yielded value is returned to the caller.

  8. Timsort - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timsort

    Timsort is a stable sorting algorithm (order of elements with same key is kept) and strives to perform balanced merges (a merge thus merges runs of similar sizes). In order to achieve sorting stability, only consecutive runs are merged. Between two non-consecutive runs, there can be an element with the same key inside the runs.
