As the world races to build artificial superintelligence, one maverick bioengineer is testing how much unprogrammed intelligence may already be lurking in our simplest algorithms to determine whether ...

Children as young as 4 years old are capable of finding efficient solutions to complex problems, such as independently inventing sorting algorithms developed by computer scientists. The scientists ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. Computer scientists often deal with abstract problems that are hard to comprehend, but an exciting new algorithm matters to anyone who ...

The aim is to create an interactive visualizer for the Heap Sort algorithm, allowing users to understand how Heap Sort works step by step. The project will also include time complexity analysis for ...

Abstract: Every algorithm has its own best-case as well as its worst-case scenario, so it is difficult to determine the best sorting algorithm just by its Big-O. Not only that, the amount of memory ...

* swap_items - Swaps two items in an array. * @array: The array to modify. * @l: The index of the left item. * @r: The index of the right item. * Description: This function swaps the values of two ...

ABSTRACT: A kind of heap sorting method based on array sorting was proposed. Some advantages and disadvantages of it were discussed. It was compared with the traditional method of direct application.
