binary search algorithm
1Binary search algorithm — for performing binary searches on Java arrays and Lists, respectively. They must be arrays of primitives, or the arrays or Lists must be of a type that implements the Comparable interface, or you must specify a custom Comparator object. Microsoft …
2Search algorithm — In computer science, a search algorithm, broadly speaking, is an algorithm that takes a problem as input and returns a solution to the problem, usually after evaluating a number of possible solutions. Most of the algorithms studied by computer… …
3Binary search tree — In computer science, a binary search tree (BST) is a binary tree data structurewhich has the following properties: *each node (item in the tree) has a value; *a total order (linear order) is defined on these values; *the left subtree of a node… …
4Uniform binary search — is an optimization of the classic binary search algorithm invented by Donald Knuth and given in Knuth s The Art of Computer Programming . It uses a lookup table to update a single array index, rather than taking the midpoint of an upper and a… …
5Self-balancing binary search tree — In computer science, a self balancing binary search tree or height balanced binary search tree is a binary search tree that attempts to keep its height , or the number of levels of nodes beneath the root, as small as possible at all times,… …
6Algorithm — Flow chart of an algorithm (Euclid s algorithm) for calculating the greatest common divisor (g.c.d.) of two numbers a and b in locations named A and B. The algorithm proceeds by successive subtractions in two loops: IF the test B ≤ A yields yes… …
7Binary logarithm — NOTOC In mathematics, the binary logarithm (log2 n ) is the logarithm for base 2. It is the inverse function of n mapsto 2^n. The binary logarithm is often used in computer science and information theory (where it is frequently written lg n , or… …
8Divide and conquer algorithm — In computer science, divide and conquer (D C) is an important algorithm design paradigm based on multi branched recursion. A divide and conquer algorithm works by recursively breaking down a problem into two or more sub problems of the same (or… …
9Interpolation search — is an algorithm for searching for a given key value in an indexed array that has been ordered by the values of the key. It parallels how humans search through a telephone book for a particular name, the key value by which the book s entries are… …
10Index (search engine) — Search engine indexing collects, parses, and stores data to facilitate fast and accurate information retrieval. Index design incorporates interdisciplinary concepts from linguistics, cognitive psychology, mathematics, informatics, physics, and… …
