Heap implementation is essential in various graph algorithms (including Dijkstra’s algorithm) as well as in the heapsort sorting algorithm. Heaps have several variances that act as abstract data type priority queue implementations with high efficiency. Many applications, such as graph algorithms, ...
Why do people feel algorithm aversion? -- an attempt to identify it and its causes, from Cass Sunstein and Jared Gaffe (Harvard) “The real revolution at the heart of ‘Structure’ was a paradigm shift in scientific narrative. Who gets to tell the story of a field?” -- Audra J. Wolf...
