This camper was able to pass the tests but their algorithm didn't perform a swap of the smallest element and the first unsorted element. def selection_sort(items ...

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 ...

There is a new sorting algorithm a deterministic O(m log2/3 n)-time algorithm for single-source shortest paths (SSSP) on directed graphs with real non-negative edge weights in the comparison-addition ...

Abstract: Sorting algorithms are fundamental to computational efficiency, with traditional methods like Quick Sort, Merge Sort, and Heap Sort being widely used despite their complexity and performance ...

Ever wondered what happens to the recyclables you carefully sort and place in your bin? For years, recycling has been a crucial part of our efforts to reduce waste and protect the environment. However ...

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 ...
