HEAP SORTING: – In this method, a tree structure called a heap is used. A heap is a type of binary tree. An ordered balanced binary tree is called a min heap where the value at the root of any sub-tree is less than or equal to the value of either of its children. An […]
QUICK SORTING: – Quick Sort is an algorithm that also likes to merge sort and uses the idea of divide and conquers. This algorithm finds the element that divides (splits) the array into halves in such a way that the elements in the left sub-array are less than and the elements in the right sub […]
RADIX SORTING:– A radix sort also called Bucket sort is the method used by most people when sorting a list of namesphabetic order. The procedure we follow: (a) First the names are grouped according to the first letter, thus the names are arranged in 26 classes, one for each letter of the alphabet. The first […]
MERGE SORTING: – Merging means combining two sorted lists into one sorted list. For this, the elements from both the sorted lists are compared. The smaller of both the elements are then stored in the third array Merge Sort is a sorting algorithm that uses the idea of divide and conquers This algorithm divides the […]
SHELL SORTING: It is also called diminishing increment sort, named after its discoverer. Shell sort algorithm provides mofo significant improvement on simple insertion sort. This method sorts separate sub-files of the original file. These subfiles contain every k elements of the original file. The value of k is called an increment or a gap. The […]
INSERTION SORTING: – An insertion sort is one that sorts a set of records by inserting records into an existing sorted file. If the initial file is sorted only one comparison is made on each pass so that the sort is O (N). If the file is initially sorted in reverse order, the sort is […]
BUBBLE SORTING: One of the characteristics of this sort is that it is easy to understand and program it is probably the least efficient. The basic idea underlying the bubble sort is to pass through the file sequentially several times. Each pass consists of comparing each element in the file with its successor and interchanging […]
SELECTION SORTING: The selection sort starts from the first element and searches the entire list until it finds the minimum value. The sort places the minimum value i the first place, select the second element, and searches for the second smallest element. The process continues until the complete list is sorted. A selection sort is […]
Sorting is a technique for arranging a set of data in some order like ascending or descending. we have different types of methods to apply to sort in ascending or descending order. and these methods are divided into two categories. Internal Sorting If we have enough memory so that the data that we want to […]
