  2. XOR swap algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XOR_swap_algorithm

    Using the XOR swap algorithm to exchange nibbles between variables without the use of temporary storage. In computer programming, the exclusive or swap (sometimes shortened to XOR swap) is an algorithm that uses the exclusive or bitwise operation to swap the values of two variables without using the temporary variable which is normally required.

  3. Swap (computer programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swap_(computer_programming)

    After swap() is performed, x will contain the value 0 and y will contain 1; their values have been exchanged. This operation may be generalized to other types of values, such as strings and aggregated data types. Comparison sorts use swaps to change the positions of data. In many programming languages the swap function is built-in.

  4. Block swap algorithms - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Block_swap_algorithms

    In computer algorithms, block swap algorithms swap two regions of elements of an array.It is simple to swap two non-overlapping regions of an array of equal size. However, it is not simple to swap two non-overlapping regions of an array in-place that are next to each other, but are of unequal sizes (such swapping is equivalent to array rotation).

  5. Bubble sort - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bubble_sort

    Bubble sort, sometimes referred to as sinking sort, is a simple sorting algorithm that repeatedly steps through the input list element by element, comparing the current element with the one after it, swapping their values if needed. These passes through the list are repeated until no swaps have to be performed during a pass, meaning that the ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Block_Sort

    Additionally, block sort relies on the following operations as part of its overall algorithm: Swap: exchange the positions of two values in an array.; Block swap: exchange a range of values within an array with values in a different range of the array.

  7. Sorting algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sorting_algorithm

    (Rabbits, large values around the beginning of the list, do not pose a problem in bubble sort) It accomplishes this by initially swapping elements that are a certain distance from one another in the array, rather than only swapping elements if they are adjacent to one another, and then shrinking the chosen distance until it is operating as a ...

  8. Heap's algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heap's_algorithm

    Because permutations of an array can be made by altering some array A through the removal of an element x from A then tacking on x to each permutation of the altered array, it follows that Heap's Algorithm permutes an array of size +, for the "buffer" in essence holds the removed element, being tacked onto the permutations of the subarray of ...

    procedure heapsort(a, count) is input: an unordered array a of length count (Build the heap in array a so that largest value is at the root) heapify(a, count) (The following loop maintains the invariants that a[0:end−1] is a heap, and every element a[end:count−1] beyond end is greater than everything before it, i.e. a[end:count−1] is in ...
