  2. Skip list - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skip_list

    To index the skip list and find the i'th value, traverse the skip list while counting down the widths of each traversed link. Descend a level whenever the upcoming width would be too large. For example, to find the node in the fifth position (Node 5), traverse a link of width 1 at the top level.

  3. Linked list - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linked_list

    A linked list is a sequence of nodes that contain two fields: data (an integer value here as an example) and a link to the next node. The last node is linked to a terminator used to signify the end of the list. In computer science, a linked list is a

  4. Python (programming language) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_(programming_language)

    Python is a high-level, general-purpose programming language. Its design philosophy emphasizes code readability with the use of significant indentation. [33] Python is dynamically type-checked and garbage-collected. It supports multiple programming paradigms, including structured (particularly procedural), object-oriented and functional ...

    Used in Python 2.3 and up, and Java SE 7. Insertion sorts Insertion sort: determine where the current item belongs in the list of sorted ones, and insert it there; Library sort; Patience sorting; Shell sort: an attempt to improve insertion sort; Tree sort (binary tree sort): build binary tree, then traverse it to create sorted list

  6. Property list - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Property_list

    Property list files use the filename extension.plist, and thus are often referred to as p-list files. Property list files are often used to store a user's settings. They are also used to store information about bundles and applications , a task served by the resource fork in the old Mac OS.

    Widely used in many programs, e.g. it is used in Excel 2003 and later versions for the Excel function RAND [8] and it was the default generator in the language Python up to version 2.2.

  8. Rabin–Karp algorithm - Wikipedia

    These positions contribute to the running time of the algorithm unnecessarily, without producing a match. Additionally, the hash function used should be a rolling hash, a hash function whose value can be quickly updated from each position of the text to the next. Recomputing the hash function from scratch at each position would be too slow.

  9. Boyer–Moore string-search algorithm - Wikipedia

    Thus if the comparisons get down to position k 1 of T, an occurrence of P can be recorded without explicitly comparing past k 1. In addition to increasing the efficiency of Boyer–Moore, the Galil rule is required for proving linear-time execution in the worst case.
