  2. Flajolet–Martin algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flajolet–Martin_algorithm

    The Flajolet–Martin algorithm is an algorithm for approximating the number of distinct elements in a stream with a single pass and space-consumption logarithmic in the maximal number of possible distinct elements in the stream (the count-distinct problem).

  3. HyperLogLog - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HyperLogLog

    HyperLogLog is an algorithm for the count-distinct problem, approximating the number of distinct elements in a multiset. [1] Calculating the exact cardinality of the distinct elements of a multiset requires an amount of memory proportional to the cardinality, which is impractical for very large data sets. Probabilistic cardinality estimators ...

  4. Count-distinct problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Count-distinct_problem

    In computer science, the count-distinct problem [1] (also known in applied mathematics as the cardinality estimation problem) is the problem of finding the number of distinct elements in a data stream with repeated elements. This is a well-known problem with numerous applications.

  5. Counting sort - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Counting_sort

    Here input is the input array to be sorted, key returns the numeric key of each item in the input array, count is an auxiliary array used first to store the numbers of items with each key, and then (after the second loop) to store the positions where items with each key should be placed, k is the maximum value of the non-negative key values and ...

  6. List of data structures - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_data_structures

    Array, a sequence of elements of the same type stored contiguously in memory; Record (also called a structure or struct), a collection of fields Product type (also called a tuple), a record in which the fields are not named; String, a sequence of characters representing text; Union, a datum which may be one of a set of types

  7. Perfect hash function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perfect_hash_function

    In computer science, a perfect hash function h for a set S is a hash function that maps distinct elements in S to a set of m integers, with no collisions. In mathematical terms, it is an injective function. Perfect hash functions may be used to implement a lookup table with constant worst-case access time.

  8. Hash table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hash_table

    Chained-Hash-Insert(T, k) insert x at the head of linked list T[h(k)] Chained-Hash-Search(T, k) search for an element with key k in linked list T[h(k)] Chained-Hash-Delete(T, k) delete x from the linked list T[h(k)] If the element is comparable either numerically or lexically, and inserted into the list by maintaining the total order, it ...

  9. List comprehension - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_comprehension

    Here, the list [0..] represents , x^2>3 represents the predicate, and 2*x represents the output expression.. List comprehensions give results in a defined order (unlike the members of sets); and list comprehensions may generate the members of a list in order, rather than produce the entirety of the list thus allowing, for example, the previous Haskell definition of the members of an infinite list.
