  2. 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 ...

  3. Skip list - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skip_list

    The "QMap" key/value dictionary (up to Qt 4) template class of Qt is implemented with skip lists. [13] Redis, an ANSI-C open-source persistent key/value store for Posix systems, uses skip lists in its implementation of ordered sets. [14] Discord uses skip lists to handle storing and updating the list of members in a server. [15]

  4. Sorting algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sorting_algorithm

    A sorting algorithm is stable if whenever there are two records R and S with the same key, and R appears before S in the original list, then R will always appear before S in the sorted list. When equal elements are indistinguishable, such as with integers, or more generally, any data where the entire element is the key, stability is not an issue.

  5. Associative array - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Associative_array

    [3] [4] [5] [11] In separate chaining, the array does not store the value itself but stores a pointer to another container, usually an association list, that stores all the values matching the hash. By contrast, in open addressing, if a hash collision is found, the table seeks an empty spot in an array to store the value in a deterministic ...

  6. Quicksort - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quicksort

    Partition the range: reorder its elements, while determining a point of division, so that all elements with values less than the pivot come before the division, while all elements with values greater than the pivot come after it; elements that are equal to the pivot can go either way. Since at least one instance of the pivot is present, most ...

  7. Sorting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sorting

    Swap it with the value in the first position. Repeat until array is sorted. Quick sort: Partition the array into two segments. In the first segment, all elements are less than or equal to the pivot value. In the second segment, all elements are greater than or equal to the pivot value. Finally, sort the two segments recursively.

  8. B-tree - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/B-tree

    For this purpose, m - 1 keys from the current node, the new key inserted, one key from the parent node and j keys from the sibling node are seen as an ordered array of m + j + 1 keys. The array becomes split by half, so that ⌊ ( m + j + 1)/2 ⌋ lowest keys stay in the current node, the next (middle) key is inserted in the parent and the rest ...

  9. Timsort - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timsort

    The largest element of the first run is 10 and it would have to be added at the fifth position of the second run in order to preserve its order. Therefore, [1, 2, 3] and [12, 14, 17] are already in their final positions and the runs in which elements movements are required are [6, 10] and [4, 5, 7, 9].
