Sorting. It’s a classic problem that’s been studied for decades, and it’s a great first step towards “thinking algorithmically.” Over the years, a handful of sorting algorithms have ...

A new study has mapped the genetic blueprint of neural stem and progenitor cells (NPCs), the rare cells responsible for ...

New computer algorithms modeled on the human brain have learned to classify galaxies by shape, size and color with 90 percent accuracy.

Sorting algorithms allow programmers to either rearrange data structures, ordering them by value, or to copy the items in order, into a second data structure.

The library sorting problem is used across computer science for organizing far more than just books. A new solution is less than a page-width away from the theoretical ideal. Computer scientists often ...

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 ...

PhD student Timo Bingmann has created an amazing video showing sorting algorithms in action. And it's surprisingly awesome!

Ever wondered what was the most efficient way to alphabetize a giant pile of books? Check out the perfect real-world algorithm for just such a task.

Do you need to know how to sort Java objects in a collection, array, or map? Here's how to use the Comparable and Comparator interfaces and avoid ClassCastExceptions.
