  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.

  3. Partially ordered set - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partially_ordered_set

    Partial orders. A reflexive, weak, [1] or non-strict partial order, [2] commonly referred to simply as a partial order, is a homogeneous relation ≤ on a set that is reflexive, antisymmetric, and transitive. That is, for all it must satisfy: Reflexivity: , i.e. every element is related to itself.

  4. Binary search tree - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_search_tree

    O (n) Fig. 1: A binary search tree of size 9 and depth 3, with 8 at the root. In computer science, a binary search tree (BST), also called an ordered or sorted binary tree, is a rooted binary tree data structure with the key of each internal node being greater than all the keys in the respective node's left subtree and less than the ones in its ...

  5. Total order - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Total_order

    A set equipped with a total order is a totally ordered set; [5] the terms simply ordered set, [2] linearly ordered set, [3] [5] and loset [6] [7] are also used. The term chain is sometimes defined as a synonym of totally ordered set , [ 5 ] but generally refers to a totally ordered subset of a given partially ordered set.

  6. Order embedding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Order_embedding

    In order theory, a branch of mathematics, an order embedding is a special kind of monotone function, which provides a way to include one partially ordered set into another. Like Galois connections, order embeddings constitute a notion which is strictly weaker than the concept of an order isomorphism. Both of these weakenings may be understood ...

  7. Binary search - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_search

    Yes. In computer science, binary search, also known as half-interval search, [1] logarithmic search, [2] or binary chop, [3] is a search algorithm that finds the position of a target value within a sorted array. [4][5] Binary search compares the target value to the middle element of the array. If they are not equal, the half in which the target ...

    Challengers to the maps will want to delay candidate filing so any potential new court-ordered maps could be used in 2024, instead of waiting until the next election. Show comments.

  9. Hash table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hash_table

    Hash table. A small phone book as a hash table. In computing, a hash table is a data structure that implements an associative array, also called a dictionary or simply map; an associative array is an abstract data type that maps keys to values. [2] A hash table uses a hash function to compute an index, also called a hash code, into an array of ...
