As best I can recall I was thinking about helping explain how arrays worked with loops. It was more about developing an algorithm and seeing how it worked with real (or realish) data. Oh and if I recall correctly, the publisher asked me to make sure I covered sorting and searching....
After a few cups of coffee, a Sorting Hat seemed like a good idea. My design requirements were (in rough order of importance to me):I needed text-to-speech support for the Hat to call out the chosen house. I wanted the algorithm to choose the house to be deterministic, not...
If the array contains duplicate elements, then the elements equal to the pivot can be put in the third subarray or in either of two subarrays depending upon the algorithm’s implementation. The array is sorted by quick sort by sorting the subarrays through recursive calling. As the quick ...

Bubble sort, sometimes incorrectly referred to as sinking sort, is a simple sorting algorithm that works by repeatedly stepping through the list to be
To get videos to rank on YouTube, we must first understand the YouTube algorithm and YouTube’s ranking factors. Like any search engine, YouTube wants to deliver content that answers the searcher’s query. For instance, if someone searches for “how to tie a tie,” YouTube won’t deliv...
Merge sort is an efficient way of sorting a list of elements. It is a comparison-based sorting algorithm. It belongs to the divide-and-conquer paradigm, wherein we divide the problem into subproblems, solve them individually, and combine their solutions to form the solution to the original pr...

or a codeforces blog. The idea behind this is that algorithms should come up at a rate according to their relevance, so if the algorithm really is important you should see it in more problems soon, and you don't need to go looking for more problems with the topic. Similarly, it is im...
Do you need to sort a list? The bubble sort has got your back. The bubble sort is a type of standard algorithm that sorts lists. It is perhaps the simplest sort out there, so it’s perfect for beginners who are new to sorting algorithms!
