  2. Rope (data structure) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rope_(data_structure)

    In computer programming, a rope, or cord, is a data structure composed of smaller strings that is used to efficiently store and manipulate longer strings or entire texts. For example, a text editing program may use a rope to represent the text being edited, so that operations such as insertion, deletion, and random access can be done ...

  3. Insertion sort - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Insertion_sort

    During each iteration, the first remaining element of the input is only compared with the right-most element of the sorted subsection of the array. The simplest worst case input is an array sorted in reverse order. The set of all worst case inputs consists of all arrays where each element is the smallest or second-smallest of the elements ...

  4. Merge-insertion sort - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Merge-insertion_sort

    Insert at the start of the element that was paired with the first and smallest element of . Insert the remaining ⌈ n / 2 ⌉ − 1 {\displaystyle \lceil n/2\rceil -1} elements of X ∖ S {\displaystyle X\setminus S} into S {\displaystyle S} , one at a time, with a specially chosen insertion ordering described below.

  5. Data structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_structure

    A data structure known as a hash table.. In computer science, a data structure is a data organization and storage format that is usually chosen for efficient access to data. [1] [2] [3] More precisely, a data structure is a collection of data values, the relationships among them, and the functions or operations that can be applied to the data, [4] i.e., it is an algebraic structure about data.

  6. Java collections framework - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Java_collections_framework

    Collection implementations in pre-JDK 1.2 versions of the Java platform included few data structure classes, but did not contain a collections framework. [4] The standard methods for grouping Java objects were via the array, the Vector, and the Hashtable classes, which unfortunately were not easy to extend, and did not implement a standard member interface.

  7. k-way merge algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/K-way_merge_algorithm

    The removed element is the overall winner. Therefore, it has won each game on the path from the input array to the root. When selecting a new element from the input array, the element needs to compete against the previous losers on the path to the root. When using a loser tree, the partner for replaying the games is already stored in the nodes.

  8. Associative array - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Associative_array

    In computer science, an associative array, map, symbol table, or dictionary is an abstract data type that stores a collection of (key, value) pairs, such that each possible key appears at most once in the collection. In mathematical terms, an associative array is a function with finite domain. [1] It supports 'lookup', 'remove', and 'insert ...

  9. Java syntax - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Java_syntax

    A snippet of Java code with keywords highlighted in bold blue font. The syntax of Java is the set of rules defining how a Java program is written and interpreted. The syntax is mostly derived from C and C++. Unlike C++, Java has no global functions or variables, but has data members which are also regarded as global variables.
