http://rosettacode.org/wiki/Stack | Stack |
Data Structure
This illustrates a data structure, a means of storing data within a program.
You may see other such structures in the Data Structures category.
A stack is a container of elements with last in, first out access policy. Sometimes it also called LIFO.
The stack is accessed through its top.
The basic stack operations are:
push stores a new element onto the stack top;
pop returns the last pushed stack element, while removing it from the stack;
empty tests if the stack contains no elements.
Sometimes the last pushed stack element is made accessible for immutable access (for read) or mutable access (for write):
top (sometimes called peek to keep with the p theme) returns the topmost element without modifying the stack.
Stacks allow a very simple hardware implementation.
They are common in almost all processors.
In programming, stacks are also very popular for their way (LIFO) of resource management, usually memory.
Nested scopes of language objects are naturally implemented by a stack (sometimes by multiple stacks).
This is a classical way to implement local variables of a re-entrant or recursive subprogram. Stacks are also used to describe a formal computational framework.
See stack machine.
Many algorithms in pattern matching, compiler construction (e.g. recursive descent parsers), and machine learning (e.g. based on tree traversal) have a natural representation in terms of stacks.
Task
Create a stack supporting the basic operations: push, pop, empty.

Produce a spiral array.
A spiral array is a square arrangement of the first N2 natural numbers, where the
numbers increase sequentially as you go around the edges of the array spiraling inwards.
For example, given 5, produce this array:
0 1 2 3 4
15 16 17 18 5
14 23 24 19 6
13 22 21 20 7

Task
Sort an array (or list) elements using the quicksort algorithm.
The elements must have a strict weak order and the index of the array can be of any discrete type.
For languages where this is not possible, sort an array of integers.
Quicksort, also known as partition-exchange sort, uses these steps.
Choose any element of the array to be the pivot.
Divide all other elements (except the pivot) into two partitions.
All elements less than the pivot must be in the first partition.
All elements greater than the pivot must be in the second partition.
Use recursion to sort both partitions.
Join the first sorted partition, the pivot, and the second sorted partition.
The best pivot creates partitions of equal length (or lengths differing by 1).
The worst pivot creates an empty partition (for example, if the pivot is the first or last element of a sorted array).
The run-time of Quicksort ranges from O(n log n) with the best pivots, to O(n2) with the worst pivots, where n is the number of elements in the array.
This is a simple quicksort algorithm, adapted from Wikipedia.
function quicksort(array)
less, equal, greater := three empty arrays
if length(array) > 1
pivot := select any element of array
for each x in array
if x < pivot then add x to less
if x = pivot then add x to equal
if x > pivot then add x to greater
quicksort(less)
quicksort(greater)
array := concatenate(less, equal, greater)
A better quicksort algorithm works in place, by swapping elements within the array, to avoid the memory allocation of more arrays.
function quicksort(array)
if length(array) > 1
pivot := select any element of array
left := first index of array
right := last index of array
while left ≤ right
while array[left] < pivot
left := left + 1
while array[right] > pivot
right := right - 1
if left ≤ right
swap array[left] with array[right]
left := left + 1
right := right - 1
quicksort(array from first index to right)
quicksort(array from left to last index)
Quicksort has a reputation as the fastest sort. Optimized variants of quicksort are common features of many languages and libraries. One often contrasts quicksort with merge sort, because both sorts have an average time of O(n log n).
"On average, mergesort does fewer comparisons than quicksort, so it may be better when complicated comparison routines are used. Mergesort also takes advantage of pre-existing order, so it would be favored for using sort() to merge several sorted arrays. On the other hand, quicksort is often faster for small arrays, and on arrays of a few distinct values, repeated many times." — http://perldoc.perl.org/sort.html
Quicksort is at one end of the spectrum of divide-and-conquer algorithms, with merge sort at the opposite end.
Quicksort is a conquer-then-divide algorithm, which does most of the work during the partitioning and the recursive calls. The subsequent reassembly of the sorted partitions involves trivial effort.
Merge sort is a divide-then-conquer algorithm. The partioning happens in a trivial way, by splitting the input array in half. Most of the work happens during the recursive calls and the merge phase.
With quicksort, every element in the first partition is less than or equal to every element in the second partition. Therefore, the merge phase of quicksort is so trivial that it needs no mention!
This task has not specified whether to allocate new arrays, or sort in place. This task also has not specified how to choose the pivot element. (Common ways to are to choose the first element, the middle element, or the median of three elements.) Thus there is a variety among the following implementations.

An O(n2) sorting algorithm which moves elements one at a time into the correct position.
The algorithm consists of inserting one element at a time into the previously sorted part of the array, moving higher ranked elements up as necessary.
To start off, the first (or smallest, or any arbitrary) element of the unsorted array is considered to be the sorted part.
Although insertion sort is an O(n2) algorithm, its simplicity, low overhead, good locality of reference and efficiency make it a good choice in two cases:
small n,
as the final finishing-off algorithm for O(n logn) algorithms such as mergesort and quicksort.
The algorithm is as follows (from wikipedia):
function insertionSort(array A)
for i from 1 to length[A]-1 do
value := A[i]
j := i-1
while j >= 0 and A[j] > value do
A[j+1] := A[j]
j := j-1
done
A[j+1] = value
done
Writing the algorithm for integers will suffice.

Heapsort is an in-place sorting algorithm with worst case and average complexity of O(n logn).
The basic idea is to turn the array into a binary heap structure, which has the property that it allows efficient retrieval and removal of the maximal element.
We repeatedly "remove" the maximal element from the heap, thus building the sorted list from back to front.
A heap sort requires random access, so can only be used on an array-like data structure.
Pseudocode:
function heapSort(a, count) is
input: an unordered array a of length count
(first place a in max-heap order)
heapify(a, count)
end := count - 1
while end > 0 do
(swap the root(maximum value) of the heap with the
last element of the heap)
swap(a[end], a[0])
(decrement the size of the heap so that the previous
max value will stay in its proper place)
end := end - 1
(put the heap back in max-heap order)
siftDown(a, 0, end)
function heapify(a,count) is
(start is assigned the index in a of the last parent node)
start := (count - 2) / 2
while start ≥ 0 do
(sift down the node at index start to the proper place
such that all nodes below the start index are in heap
order)
siftDown(a, start, count-1)
start := start - 1
(after sifting down the root all nodes/elements are in heap order)
function siftDown(a, start, end) is
(end represents the limit of how far down the heap to sift)
root := start
while root * 2 + 1 ≤ end do (While the root has at least one child)
child := root * 2 + 1 (root*2+1 points to the left child)
(If the child has a sibling and the child's value is less than its sibling's...)
if child + 1 ≤ end and a[child] < a[child + 1] then
child := child + 1 (... then point to the right child instead)
if a[root] < a[child] then (out of max-heap order)
swap(a[root], a[child])
root := child (repeat to continue sifting down the child now)
else
return
Write a function to sort a collection of integers using heapsort.

The merge sort is a recursive sort of order n*log(n).
It is notable for having a worst case and average complexity of O(n*log(n)), and a best case complexity of O(n) (for pre-sorted input).
The basic idea is to split the collection into smaller groups by halving it until the groups only have one element or no elements (which are both entirely sorted groups).
Then merge the groups back together so that their elements are in order.
This is how the algorithm gets its divide and conquer description.
Task
Write a function to sort a collection of integers using the merge sort.
The merge sort algorithm comes in two parts:
a sort function and
a merge function
The functions in pseudocode look like this:
function mergesort(m)
var list left, right, result
if length(m) ≤ 1
return m
else
var middle = length(m) / 2
for each x in m up to middle - 1
add x to left
for each x in m at and after middle
add x to right
left = mergesort(left)
right = mergesort(right)
if last(left) ≤ first(right)
append right to left
return left
result = merge(left, right)
return result
function merge(left,right)
var list result
while length(left) > 0 and length(right) > 0
if first(left) ≤ first(right)
append first(left) to result
left = rest(left)
else
append first(right) to result
right = rest(right)
if length(left) > 0
append rest(left) to result
if length(right) > 0
append rest(right) to result
return result
See also
the Wikipedia entry: merge sort
Note: better performance can be expected if, rather than recursing until length(m) ≤ 1, an insertion sort is used for length(m) smaller than some threshold larger than 1. However, this complicates the example code, so it is not shown here.

Task
Sort an array of integers (of any convenient size) into ascending order using Pancake sorting.
In short, instead of individual elements being sorted, the only operation allowed is to "flip" one end of the list, like so:
Before: 6 7 8 9 2 5 3 4 1
After: 9 8 7 6 2 5 3 4 1
Only one end of the list can be flipped; this should be the low end, but the high end is okay if it's easier to code or works better, but it must be the same end for the entire solution. (The end flipped can't be arbitrarily changed.)
Show both the initial, unsorted list and the final sorted list.
(Intermediate steps during sorting are optional.)
Optimizations are optional (but recommended).

Task
Sort an array (or list) of elements using the Selection sort algorithm.
It works as follows:
First find the smallest element in the array and exchange it with the element in the first position, then find the second smallest element and exchange it with the element in the second position, and continue in this way until the entire array is sorted.
Its asymptotic complexity is O(n2) making it inefficient on large arrays.
Its primary purpose is for when writing data is very expensive (slow) when compared to reading, eg. writing to flash memory or EEPROM.
No other sorting algorithm has less data movement.

http://rosettacode.org/wiki/Soundex | Soundex | Soundex is an algorithm for creating indices for words based on their pronunciation.
Task
The goal is for homophones to be encoded to the same representation so that they can be matched despite minor differences in spelling (from the soundex Wikipedia article).
Caution
There is a major issue in many of the implementations concerning the separation of two consonants that have the same soundex code! According to the official Rules [[1]]. So check for instance if Ashcraft is coded to A-261.
If a vowel (A, E, I, O, U) separates two consonants that have the same soundex code, the consonant to the right of the vowel is coded. Tymczak is coded as T-522 (T, 5 for the M, 2 for the C, Z ignored (see "Side-by-Side" rule above), 2 for the K). Since the vowel "A" separates the Z and K, the K is coded.
If "H" or "W" separate two consonants that have the same soundex code, the consonant to the right of the vowel is not coded. Example: Ashcraft is coded A-261 (A, 2 for the S, C ignored, 6 for the R, 1 for the F). It is not coded A-226.

Task
Sort an array of elements using the Shell sort algorithm, a diminishing increment sort.
The Shell sort (also known as Shellsort or Shell's method) is named after its inventor, Donald Shell, who published the algorithm in 1959.
Shell sort is a sequence of interleaved insertion sorts based on an increment sequence.
The increment size is reduced after each pass until the increment size is 1.
With an increment size of 1, the sort is a basic insertion sort, but by this time the data is guaranteed to be almost sorted, which is insertion sort's "best case".
Any sequence will sort the data as long as it ends in 1, but some work better than others.
Empirical studies have shown a geometric increment sequence with a ratio of about 2.2 work well in practice.

Other good sequences are found at the On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences.

http://rosettacode.org/wiki/Stack | Stack |
Data Structure
This illustrates a data structure, a means of storing data within a program.
You may see other such structures in the Data Structures category.
A stack is a container of elements with last in, first out access policy. Sometimes it also called LIFO.
The stack is accessed through its top.
The basic stack operations are:
push stores a new element onto the stack top;
pop returns the last pushed stack element, while removing it from the stack;
empty tests if the stack contains no elements.
Sometimes the last pushed stack element is made accessible for immutable access (for read) or mutable access (for write):
top (sometimes called peek to keep with the p theme) returns the topmost element without modifying the stack.
Stacks allow a very simple hardware implementation.
They are common in almost all processors.
In programming, stacks are also very popular for their way (LIFO) of resource management, usually memory.
Nested scopes of language objects are naturally implemented by a stack (sometimes by multiple stacks).
This is a classical way to implement local variables of a re-entrant or recursive subprogram. Stacks are also used to describe a formal computational framework.
See stack machine.
Many algorithms in pattern matching, compiler construction (e.g. recursive descent parsers), and machine learning (e.g. based on tree traversal) have a natural representation in terms of stacks.
Task
Create a stack supporting the basic operations: push, pop, empty.

Task
Sort an array (or list) elements using the quicksort algorithm.
The elements must have a strict weak order and the index of the array can be of any discrete type.
For languages where this is not possible, sort an array of integers.
Quicksort, also known as partition-exchange sort, uses these steps.
Choose any element of the array to be the pivot.
Divide all other elements (except the pivot) into two partitions.
All elements less than the pivot must be in the first partition.
All elements greater than the pivot must be in the second partition.
Use recursion to sort both partitions.
Join the first sorted partition, the pivot, and the second sorted partition.
The best pivot creates partitions of equal length (or lengths differing by 1).
The worst pivot creates an empty partition (for example, if the pivot is the first or last element of a sorted array).
The run-time of Quicksort ranges from O(n log n) with the best pivots, to O(n2) with the worst pivots, where n is the number of elements in the array.
This is a simple quicksort algorithm, adapted from Wikipedia.
function quicksort(array)
less, equal, greater := three empty arrays
if length(array) > 1
pivot := select any element of array
for each x in array
if x < pivot then add x to less
if x = pivot then add x to equal
if x > pivot then add x to greater
quicksort(less)
quicksort(greater)
array := concatenate(less, equal, greater)
A better quicksort algorithm works in place, by swapping elements within the array, to avoid the memory allocation of more arrays.
function quicksort(array)
if length(array) > 1
pivot := select any element of array
left := first index of array
right := last index of array
while left ≤ right
while array[left] < pivot
left := left + 1
while array[right] > pivot
right := right - 1
if left ≤ right
swap array[left] with array[right]
left := left + 1
right := right - 1
quicksort(array from first index to right)
quicksort(array from left to last index)
Quicksort has a reputation as the fastest sort. Optimized variants of quicksort are common features of many languages and libraries. One often contrasts quicksort with merge sort, because both sorts have an average time of O(n log n).
"On average, mergesort does fewer comparisons than quicksort, so it may be better when complicated comparison routines are used. Mergesort also takes advantage of pre-existing order, so it would be favored for using sort() to merge several sorted arrays. On the other hand, quicksort is often faster for small arrays, and on arrays of a few distinct values, repeated many times." — http://perldoc.perl.org/sort.html
Quicksort is at one end of the spectrum of divide-and-conquer algorithms, with merge sort at the opposite end.
Quicksort is a conquer-then-divide algorithm, which does most of the work during the partitioning and the recursive calls. The subsequent reassembly of the sorted partitions involves trivial effort.
Merge sort is a divide-then-conquer algorithm. The partioning happens in a trivial way, by splitting the input array in half. Most of the work happens during the recursive calls and the merge phase.
With quicksort, every element in the first partition is less than or equal to every element in the second partition. Therefore, the merge phase of quicksort is so trivial that it needs no mention!
This task has not specified whether to allocate new arrays, or sort in place. This task also has not specified how to choose the pivot element. (Common ways to are to choose the first element, the middle element, or the median of three elements.) Thus there is a variety among the following implementations.
| #EchoLisp | EchoLisp |
(lib 'list) ;; list-partition
(define compare 0) ;; counter
(define (quicksort L compare-predicate: proc aux: (part null))
(if (<= (length L) 1) L
(begin
;; counting the number of comparisons
(set! compare (+ compare (length (rest L))))
;; pivot = first element of list
(set! part (list-partition (rest L) proc (first L)))
(append (quicksort (first part) proc )
(list (first L))
(quicksort (second part) proc)))))

An O(n2) sorting algorithm which moves elements one at a time into the correct position.
The algorithm consists of inserting one element at a time into the previously sorted part of the array, moving higher ranked elements up as necessary.
To start off, the first (or smallest, or any arbitrary) element of the unsorted array is considered to be the sorted part.
Although insertion sort is an O(n2) algorithm, its simplicity, low overhead, good locality of reference and efficiency make it a good choice in two cases:
small n,
as the final finishing-off algorithm for O(n logn) algorithms such as mergesort and quicksort.
The algorithm is as follows (from wikipedia):
function insertionSort(array A)
for i from 1 to length[A]-1 do
value := A[i]
j := i-1
while j >= 0 and A[j] > value do
A[j+1] := A[j]
j := j-1
done
A[j+1] = value
done
Writing the algorithm for integers will suffice.
| #E | E | def insertionSort(array) {
for i in 1..!(array.size()) {
def value := array[i]
var j := i-1
while (j >= 0 && array[j] > value) {
array[j + 1] := array[j]
j -= 1
}
array[j+1] := value
}

Heapsort is an in-place sorting algorithm with worst case and average complexity of O(n logn).
The basic idea is to turn the array into a binary heap structure, which has the property that it allows efficient retrieval and removal of the maximal element.
We repeatedly "remove" the maximal element from the heap, thus building the sorted list from back to front.
A heap sort requires random access, so can only be used on an array-like data structure.
Pseudocode:
function heapSort(a, count) is
input: an unordered array a of length count
(first place a in max-heap order)
heapify(a, count)
end := count - 1
while end > 0 do
(swap the root(maximum value) of the heap with the
last element of the heap)
swap(a[end], a[0])
(decrement the size of the heap so that the previous
max value will stay in its proper place)
end := end - 1
(put the heap back in max-heap order)
siftDown(a, 0, end)
function heapify(a,count) is
(start is assigned the index in a of the last parent node)
start := (count - 2) / 2
while start ≥ 0 do
(sift down the node at index start to the proper place
such that all nodes below the start index are in heap
order)
siftDown(a, start, count-1)
start := start - 1
(after sifting down the root all nodes/elements are in heap order)
function siftDown(a, start, end) is
(end represents the limit of how far down the heap to sift)
root := start
while root * 2 + 1 ≤ end do (While the root has at least one child)
child := root * 2 + 1 (root*2+1 points to the left child)
(If the child has a sibling and the child's value is less than its sibling's...)
if child + 1 ≤ end and a[child] < a[child + 1] then
child := child + 1 (... then point to the right child instead)
if a[root] < a[child] then (out of max-heap order)
swap(a[root], a[child])
root := child (repeat to continue sifting down the child now)
else
return

The merge sort is a recursive sort of order n*log(n).
It is notable for having a worst case and average complexity of O(n*log(n)), and a best case complexity of O(n) (for pre-sorted input).
The basic idea is to split the collection into smaller groups by halving it until the groups only have one element or no elements (which are both entirely sorted groups).
Then merge the groups back together so that their elements are in order.
This is how the algorithm gets its divide and conquer description.
Task
Write a function to sort a collection of integers using the merge sort.
The merge sort algorithm comes in two parts:
a sort function and
a merge function
The functions in pseudocode look like this:
function mergesort(m)
var list left, right, result
if length(m) ≤ 1
return m
else
var middle = length(m) / 2
for each x in m up to middle - 1
add x to left
for each x in m at and after middle
add x to right
left = mergesort(left)
right = mergesort(right)
if last(left) ≤ first(right)
append right to left
return left
result = merge(left, right)
return result
function merge(left,right)
var list result
while length(left) > 0 and length(right) > 0
if first(left) ≤ first(right)
append first(left) to result
left = rest(left)
else
append first(right) to result
right = rest(right)
if length(left) > 0
append rest(left) to result
if length(right) > 0
append rest(right) to result
return result
See also
the Wikipedia entry: merge sort
Note: better performance can be expected if, rather than recursing until length(m) ≤ 1, an insertion sort is used for length(m) smaller than some threshold larger than 1. However, this complicates the example code, so it is not shown here.

******************************************************************
* MERGE SORT *
* The Merge sort uses a completely different paradigm, one of *
* divide and conquer, to many of the other sorts. The data set *
* is split into smaller sub sets upon which are sorted and then *
* merged together to form the final sorted data set. *
* This version uses the recursive method. Split the data set in *
* half and perform a merge sort on each half. This in turn splits*
* each half again and again until each set is just one or 2 items*
* long. A set of one item is already sorted so is ignored, a set *
* of two is compared and swapped as necessary. The smaller data *
* sets are then repeatedly merged together to eventually form the*
* full, sorted, set. *
* Since cobol cannot do recursion this module only simulates it *
* so is not as fast as a normal recursive version would be. *
* Scales very well to larger data sets, its relative complexity *
* means it is not suited to sorting smaller data sets: use an *
* Insertion sort instead as the Merge sort is a stable sort. *

Task
Sort an array of integers (of any convenient size) into ascending order using Pancake sorting.
In short, instead of individual elements being sorted, the only operation allowed is to "flip" one end of the list, like so:
Before: 6 7 8 9 2 5 3 4 1
After: 9 8 7 6 2 5 3 4 1
Only one end of the list can be flipped; this should be the low end, but the high end is okay if it's easier to code or works better, but it must be the same end for the entire solution. (The end flipped can't be arbitrarily changed.)
Show both the initial, unsorted list and the final sorted list.
(Intermediate steps during sorting are optional.)
Optimizations are optional (but recommended).

Task
Sort an array (or list) of elements using the Selection sort algorithm.
It works as follows:
First find the smallest element in the array and exchange it with the element in the first position, then find the second smallest element and exchange it with the element in the second position, and continue in this way until the entire array is sorted.
Its asymptotic complexity is O(n2) making it inefficient on large arrays.
Its primary purpose is for when writing data is very expensive (slow) when compared to reading, eg. writing to flash memory or EEPROM.
No other sorting algorithm has less data movement.

http://rosettacode.org/wiki/Soundex | Soundex | Soundex is an algorithm for creating indices for words based on their pronunciation.
Task
The goal is for homophones to be encoded to the same representation so that they can be matched despite minor differences in spelling (from the soundex Wikipedia article).
Caution
There is a major issue in many of the implementations concerning the separation of two consonants that have the same soundex code! According to the official Rules [[1]]. So check for instance if Ashcraft is coded to A-261.
If a vowel (A, E, I, O, U) separates two consonants that have the same soundex code, the consonant to the right of the vowel is coded. Tymczak is coded as T-522 (T, 5 for the M, 2 for the C, Z ignored (see "Side-by-Side" rule above), 2 for the K). Since the vowel "A" separates the Z and K, the K is coded.
If "H" or "W" separate two consonants that have the same soundex code, the consonant to the right of the vowel is not coded. Example: Ashcraft is coded A-261 (A, 2 for the S, C ignored, 6 for the R, 1 for the F). It is not coded A-226.

Task
Sort an array of elements using the Shell sort algorithm, a diminishing increment sort.
The Shell sort (also known as Shellsort or Shell's method) is named after its inventor, Donald Shell, who published the algorithm in 1959.
Shell sort is a sequence of interleaved insertion sorts based on an increment sequence.
The increment size is reduced after each pass until the increment size is 1.
With an increment size of 1, the sort is a basic insertion sort, but by this time the data is guaranteed to be almost sorted, which is insertion sort's "best case".
Any sequence will sort the data as long as it ends in 1, but some work better than others.
Empirical studies have shown a geometric increment sequence with a ratio of about 2.2 work well in practice.

Other good sequences are found at the On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences.

http://rosettacode.org/wiki/Stack | Stack |
Data Structure
This illustrates a data structure, a means of storing data within a program.
You may see other such structures in the Data Structures category.
A stack is a container of elements with last in, first out access policy. Sometimes it also called LIFO.
The stack is accessed through its top.
The basic stack operations are:
push stores a new element onto the stack top;
pop returns the last pushed stack element, while removing it from the stack;
empty tests if the stack contains no elements.
Sometimes the last pushed stack element is made accessible for immutable access (for read) or mutable access (for write):
top (sometimes called peek to keep with the p theme) returns the topmost element without modifying the stack.
Stacks allow a very simple hardware implementation.
They are common in almost all processors.
In programming, stacks are also very popular for their way (LIFO) of resource management, usually memory.
Nested scopes of language objects are naturally implemented by a stack (sometimes by multiple stacks).
This is a classical way to implement local variables of a re-entrant or recursive subprogram. Stacks are also used to describe a formal computational framework.
See stack machine.
Many algorithms in pattern matching, compiler construction (e.g. recursive descent parsers), and machine learning (e.g. based on tree traversal) have a natural representation in terms of stacks.
Task
Create a stack supporting the basic operations: push, pop, empty.

Task
Sort an array (or list) elements using the quicksort algorithm.
The elements must have a strict weak order and the index of the array can be of any discrete type.
For languages where this is not possible, sort an array of integers.
Quicksort, also known as partition-exchange sort, uses these steps.
Choose any element of the array to be the pivot.
Divide all other elements (except the pivot) into two partitions.
All elements less than the pivot must be in the first partition.
All elements greater than the pivot must be in the second partition.
Use recursion to sort both partitions.
Join the first sorted partition, the pivot, and the second sorted partition.
The best pivot creates partitions of equal length (or lengths differing by 1).
The worst pivot creates an empty partition (for example, if the pivot is the first or last element of a sorted array).
The run-time of Quicksort ranges from O(n log n) with the best pivots, to O(n2) with the worst pivots, where n is the number of elements in the array.
This is a simple quicksort algorithm, adapted from Wikipedia.
function quicksort(array)
less, equal, greater := three empty arrays
if length(array) > 1
pivot := select any element of array
for each x in array
if x < pivot then add x to less
if x = pivot then add x to equal
if x > pivot then add x to greater
quicksort(less)
quicksort(greater)
array := concatenate(less, equal, greater)
A better quicksort algorithm works in place, by swapping elements within the array, to avoid the memory allocation of more arrays.
function quicksort(array)
if length(array) > 1
pivot := select any element of array
left := first index of array
right := last index of array
while left ≤ right
while array[left] < pivot
left := left + 1
while array[right] > pivot
right := right - 1
if left ≤ right
swap array[left] with array[right]
left := left + 1
right := right - 1
quicksort(array from first index to right)
quicksort(array from left to last index)
Quicksort has a reputation as the fastest sort. Optimized variants of quicksort are common features of many languages and libraries. One often contrasts quicksort with merge sort, because both sorts have an average time of O(n log n).
"On average, mergesort does fewer comparisons than quicksort, so it may be better when complicated comparison routines are used. Mergesort also takes advantage of pre-existing order, so it would be favored for using sort() to merge several sorted arrays. On the other hand, quicksort is often faster for small arrays, and on arrays of a few distinct values, repeated many times." — http://perldoc.perl.org/sort.html
Quicksort is at one end of the spectrum of divide-and-conquer algorithms, with merge sort at the opposite end.
Quicksort is a conquer-then-divide algorithm, which does most of the work during the partitioning and the recursive calls. The subsequent reassembly of the sorted partitions involves trivial effort.
Merge sort is a divide-then-conquer algorithm. The partioning happens in a trivial way, by splitting the input array in half. Most of the work happens during the recursive calls and the merge phase.
With quicksort, every element in the first partition is less than or equal to every element in the second partition. Therefore, the merge phase of quicksort is so trivial that it needs no mention!
This task has not specified whether to allocate new arrays, or sort in place. This task also has not specified how to choose the pivot element. (Common ways to are to choose the first element, the middle element, or the median of three elements.) Thus there is a variety among the following implementations.
| #Eero | Eero | #import <Foundation/Foundation.h>
void quicksortInPlace(MutableArray array, const long first, const long last)
if first >= last
return
Value pivot = array[(first + last) / 2]

while left <= right
while array[left] < pivot

An O(n2) sorting algorithm which moves elements one at a time into the correct position.
The algorithm consists of inserting one element at a time into the previously sorted part of the array, moving higher ranked elements up as necessary.
To start off, the first (or smallest, or any arbitrary) element of the unsorted array is considered to be the sorted part.
Although insertion sort is an O(n2) algorithm, its simplicity, low overhead, good locality of reference and efficiency make it a good choice in two cases:
small n,
as the final finishing-off algorithm for O(n logn) algorithms such as mergesort and quicksort.
The algorithm is as follows (from wikipedia):
function insertionSort(array A)
for i from 1 to length[A]-1 do
value := A[i]
j := i-1
while j >= 0 and A[j] > value do
A[j+1] := A[j]
j := j-1
done
A[j+1] = value
done
Writing the algorithm for integers will suffice.

Heapsort is an in-place sorting algorithm with worst case and average complexity of O(n logn).
The basic idea is to turn the array into a binary heap structure, which has the property that it allows efficient retrieval and removal of the maximal element.
We repeatedly "remove" the maximal element from the heap, thus building the sorted list from back to front.
A heap sort requires random access, so can only be used on an array-like data structure.
Pseudocode:
function heapSort(a, count) is
input: an unordered array a of length count
(first place a in max-heap order)
heapify(a, count)
end := count - 1
while end > 0 do
(swap the root(maximum value) of the heap with the
last element of the heap)
swap(a[end], a[0])
(decrement the size of the heap so that the previous
max value will stay in its proper place)
end := end - 1
(put the heap back in max-heap order)
siftDown(a, 0, end)
function heapify(a,count) is
(start is assigned the index in a of the last parent node)
start := (count - 2) / 2
while start ≥ 0 do
(sift down the node at index start to the proper place
such that all nodes below the start index are in heap
order)
siftDown(a, start, count-1)
start := start - 1
(after sifting down the root all nodes/elements are in heap order)
function siftDown(a, start, end) is
(end represents the limit of how far down the heap to sift)
root := start
while root * 2 + 1 ≤ end do (While the root has at least one child)
child := root * 2 + 1 (root*2+1 points to the left child)
(If the child has a sibling and the child's value is less than its sibling's...)
if child + 1 ≤ end and a[child] < a[child + 1] then
child := child + 1 (... then point to the right child instead)
if a[root] < a[child] then (out of max-heap order)
swap(a[root], a[child])
root := child (repeat to continue sifting down the child now)
else
return
Write a function to sort a collection of integers using heapsort.

The merge sort is a recursive sort of order n*log(n).
It is notable for having a worst case and average complexity of O(n*log(n)), and a best case complexity of O(n) (for pre-sorted input).
The basic idea is to split the collection into smaller groups by halving it until the groups only have one element or no elements (which are both entirely sorted groups).
Then merge the groups back together so that their elements are in order.
This is how the algorithm gets its divide and conquer description.
Task
Write a function to sort a collection of integers using the merge sort.
The merge sort algorithm comes in two parts:
a sort function and
a merge function
The functions in pseudocode look like this:
function mergesort(m)
var list left, right, result
if length(m) ≤ 1
return m
else
var middle = length(m) / 2
for each x in m up to middle - 1
add x to left
for each x in m at and after middle
add x to right
left = mergesort(left)
right = mergesort(right)
if last(left) ≤ first(right)
append right to left
return left
result = merge(left, right)
return result
function merge(left,right)
var list result
while length(left) > 0 and length(right) > 0
if first(left) ≤ first(right)
append first(left) to result
left = rest(left)
else
append first(right) to result
right = rest(right)
if length(left) > 0
append rest(left) to result
if length(right) > 0
append rest(right) to result
return result
See also
the Wikipedia entry: merge sort
Note: better performance can be expected if, rather than recursing until length(m) ≤ 1, an insertion sort is used for length(m) smaller than some threshold larger than 1. However, this complicates the example code, so it is not shown here.

Task
Sort an array of integers (of any convenient size) into ascending order using Pancake sorting.
In short, instead of individual elements being sorted, the only operation allowed is to "flip" one end of the list, like so:
Before: 6 7 8 9 2 5 3 4 1
After: 9 8 7 6 2 5 3 4 1
Only one end of the list can be flipped; this should be the low end, but the high end is okay if it's easier to code or works better, but it must be the same end for the entire solution. (The end flipped can't be arbitrarily changed.)
Show both the initial, unsorted list and the final sorted list.
(Intermediate steps during sorting are optional.)
Optimizations are optional (but recommended).

Task
Sort an array (or list) of elements using the Selection sort algorithm.
It works as follows:
First find the smallest element in the array and exchange it with the element in the first position, then find the second smallest element and exchange it with the element in the second position, and continue in this way until the entire array is sorted.
Its asymptotic complexity is O(n2) making it inefficient on large arrays.
Its primary purpose is for when writing data is very expensive (slow) when compared to reading, eg. writing to flash memory or EEPROM.
No other sorting algorithm has less data movement.

http://rosettacode.org/wiki/Soundex | Soundex | Soundex is an algorithm for creating indices for words based on their pronunciation.
Task
The goal is for homophones to be encoded to the same representation so that they can be matched despite minor differences in spelling (from the soundex Wikipedia article).
Caution
There is a major issue in many of the implementations concerning the separation of two consonants that have the same soundex code! According to the official Rules [[1]]. So check for instance if Ashcraft is coded to A-261.
If a vowel (A, E, I, O, U) separates two consonants that have the same soundex code, the consonant to the right of the vowel is coded. Tymczak is coded as T-522 (T, 5 for the M, 2 for the C, Z ignored (see "Side-by-Side" rule above), 2 for the K). Since the vowel "A" separates the Z and K, the K is coded.
If "H" or "W" separate two consonants that have the same soundex code, the consonant to the right of the vowel is not coded. Example: Ashcraft is coded A-261 (A, 2 for the S, C ignored, 6 for the R, 1 for the F). It is not coded A-226.

Task
Sort an array of elements using the Shell sort algorithm, a diminishing increment sort.
The Shell sort (also known as Shellsort or Shell's method) is named after its inventor, Donald Shell, who published the algorithm in 1959.
Shell sort is a sequence of interleaved insertion sorts based on an increment sequence.
The increment size is reduced after each pass until the increment size is 1.
With an increment size of 1, the sort is a basic insertion sort, but by this time the data is guaranteed to be almost sorted, which is insertion sort's "best case".
Any sequence will sort the data as long as it ends in 1, but some work better than others.
Empirical studies have shown a geometric increment sequence with a ratio of about 2.2 work well in practice.
[1]
Other good sequences are found at the On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences.

http://rosettacode.org/wiki/Stack | Stack |
Data Structure
This illustrates a data structure, a means of storing data within a program.
You may see other such structures in the Data Structures category.
A stack is a container of elements with last in, first out access policy. Sometimes it also called LIFO.
The stack is accessed through its top.
The basic stack operations are:
push stores a new element onto the stack top;
pop returns the last pushed stack element, while removing it from the stack;
empty tests if the stack contains no elements.
Sometimes the last pushed stack element is made accessible for immutable access (for read) or mutable access (for write):
top (sometimes called peek to keep with the p theme) returns the topmost element without modifying the stack.
Stacks allow a very simple hardware implementation.
They are common in almost all processors.
In programming, stacks are also very popular for their way (LIFO) of resource management, usually memory.
Nested scopes of language objects are naturally implemented by a stack (sometimes by multiple stacks).
This is a classical way to implement local variables of a re-entrant or recursive subprogram. Stacks are also used to describe a formal computational framework.
See stack machine.
Many algorithms in pattern matching, compiler construction (e.g. recursive descent parsers), and machine learning (e.g. based on tree traversal) have a natural representation in terms of stacks.
Task
Create a stack supporting the basic operations: push, pop, empty.

Task
Sort an array (or list) elements using the quicksort algorithm.
The elements must have a strict weak order and the index of the array can be of any discrete type.
For languages where this is not possible, sort an array of integers.
Quicksort, also known as partition-exchange sort, uses these steps.
Choose any element of the array to be the pivot.
Divide all other elements (except the pivot) into two partitions.
All elements less than the pivot must be in the first partition.
All elements greater than the pivot must be in the second partition.
Use recursion to sort both partitions.
Join the first sorted partition, the pivot, and the second sorted partition.
The best pivot creates partitions of equal length (or lengths differing by 1).
The worst pivot creates an empty partition (for example, if the pivot is the first or last element of a sorted array).
The run-time of Quicksort ranges from O(n log n) with the best pivots, to O(n2) with the worst pivots, where n is the number of elements in the array.
This is a simple quicksort algorithm, adapted from Wikipedia.
function quicksort(array)
less, equal, greater := three empty arrays
if length(array) > 1
pivot := select any element of array
for each x in array
if x < pivot then add x to less
if x = pivot then add x to equal
if x > pivot then add x to greater
quicksort(less)
quicksort(greater)
array := concatenate(less, equal, greater)
A better quicksort algorithm works in place, by swapping elements within the array, to avoid the memory allocation of more arrays.
function quicksort(array)
if length(array) > 1
pivot := select any element of array
left := first index of array
right := last index of array
while left ≤ right
while array[left] < pivot
left := left + 1
while array[right] > pivot
right := right - 1
if left ≤ right
swap array[left] with array[right]
left := left + 1
right := right - 1
quicksort(array from first index to right)
quicksort(array from left to last index)
Quicksort has a reputation as the fastest sort. Optimized variants of quicksort are common features of many languages and libraries. One often contrasts quicksort with merge sort, because both sorts have an average time of O(n log n).
"On average, mergesort does fewer comparisons than quicksort, so it may be better when complicated comparison routines are used. Mergesort also takes advantage of pre-existing order, so it would be favored for using sort() to merge several sorted arrays. On the other hand, quicksort is often faster for small arrays, and on arrays of a few distinct values, repeated many times." — http://perldoc.perl.org/sort.html
Quicksort is at one end of the spectrum of divide-and-conquer algorithms, with merge sort at the opposite end.
Quicksort is a conquer-then-divide algorithm, which does most of the work during the partitioning and the recursive calls. The subsequent reassembly of the sorted partitions involves trivial effort.
Merge sort is a divide-then-conquer algorithm. The partioning happens in a trivial way, by splitting the input array in half. Most of the work happens during the recursive calls and the merge phase.
With quicksort, every element in the first partition is less than or equal to every element in the second partition. Therefore, the merge phase of quicksort is so trivial that it needs no mention!
This task has not specified whether to allocate new arrays, or sort in place. This task also has not specified how to choose the pivot element. (Common ways to are to choose the first element, the middle element, or the median of three elements.) Thus there is a variety among the following implementations.

An O(n2) sorting algorithm which moves elements one at a time into the correct position.
The algorithm consists of inserting one element at a time into the previously sorted part of the array, moving higher ranked elements up as necessary.
To start off, the first (or smallest, or any arbitrary) element of the unsorted array is considered to be the sorted part.
Although insertion sort is an O(n2) algorithm, its simplicity, low overhead, good locality of reference and efficiency make it a good choice in two cases:
small n,
as the final finishing-off algorithm for O(n logn) algorithms such as mergesort and quicksort.
The algorithm is as follows (from wikipedia):
function insertionSort(array A)
for i from 1 to length[A]-1 do
value := A[i]
j := i-1
while j >= 0 and A[j] > value do
A[j+1] := A[j]
j := j-1
done
A[j+1] = value
done
Writing the algorithm for integers will suffice.

Heapsort is an in-place sorting algorithm with worst case and average complexity of O(n logn).
The basic idea is to turn the array into a binary heap structure, which has the property that it allows efficient retrieval and removal of the maximal element.
We repeatedly "remove" the maximal element from the heap, thus building the sorted list from back to front.
A heap sort requires random access, so can only be used on an array-like data structure.
Pseudocode:
function heapSort(a, count) is
input: an unordered array a of length count
(first place a in max-heap order)
heapify(a, count)
end := count - 1
while end > 0 do
(swap the root(maximum value) of the heap with the
last element of the heap)
swap(a[end], a[0])
(decrement the size of the heap so that the previous
max value will stay in its proper place)
end := end - 1
(put the heap back in max-heap order)
siftDown(a, 0, end)
function heapify(a,count) is
(start is assigned the index in a of the last parent node)
start := (count - 2) / 2
while start ≥ 0 do
(sift down the node at index start to the proper place
such that all nodes below the start index are in heap
order)
siftDown(a, start, count-1)
start := start - 1
(after sifting down the root all nodes/elements are in heap order)
function siftDown(a, start, end) is
(end represents the limit of how far down the heap to sift)
root := start
while root * 2 + 1 ≤ end do (While the root has at least one child)
child := root * 2 + 1 (root*2+1 points to the left child)
(If the child has a sibling and the child's value is less than its sibling's...)
if child + 1 ≤ end and a[child] < a[child + 1] then
child := child + 1 (... then point to the right child instead)
if a[root] < a[child] then (out of max-heap order)
swap(a[root], a[child])
root := child (repeat to continue sifting down the child now)
else
return

The merge sort is a recursive sort of order n*log(n).
It is notable for having a worst case and average complexity of O(n*log(n)), and a best case complexity of O(n) (for pre-sorted input).
The basic idea is to split the collection into smaller groups by halving it until the groups only have one element or no elements (which are both entirely sorted groups).
Then merge the groups back together so that their elements are in order.
This is how the algorithm gets its divide and conquer description.
Task
Write a function to sort a collection of integers using the merge sort.
The merge sort algorithm comes in two parts:
a sort function and
a merge function
The functions in pseudocode look like this:
function mergesort(m)
var list left, right, result
if length(m) ≤ 1
return m
else
var middle = length(m) / 2
for each x in m up to middle - 1
add x to left
for each x in m at and after middle
add x to right
left = mergesort(left)
right = mergesort(right)
if last(left) ≤ first(right)
append right to left
return left
result = merge(left, right)
return result
function merge(left,right)
var list result
while length(left) > 0 and length(right) > 0
if first(left) ≤ first(right)
append first(left) to result
left = rest(left)
else
append first(right) to result
right = rest(right)
if length(left) > 0
append rest(left) to result
if length(right) > 0
append rest(right) to result
return result
See also
the Wikipedia entry: merge sort
Note: better performance can be expected if, rather than recursing until length(m) ≤ 1, an insertion sort is used for length(m) smaller than some threshold larger than 1. However, this complicates the example code, so it is not shown here.

Task
Sort an array of integers (of any convenient size) into ascending order using Pancake sorting.
In short, instead of individual elements being sorted, the only operation allowed is to "flip" one end of the list, like so:
Before: 6 7 8 9 2 5 3 4 1
After: 9 8 7 6 2 5 3 4 1
Only one end of the list can be flipped; this should be the low end, but the high end is okay if it's easier to code or works better, but it must be the same end for the entire solution. (The end flipped can't be arbitrarily changed.)
Show both the initial, unsorted list and the final sorted list.
(Intermediate steps during sorting are optional.)
Optimizations are optional (but recommended).

Task
Sort an array (or list) of elements using the Selection sort algorithm.
It works as follows:
First find the smallest element in the array and exchange it with the element in the first position, then find the second smallest element and exchange it with the element in the second position, and continue in this way until the entire array is sorted.
Its asymptotic complexity is O(n2) making it inefficient on large arrays.
Its primary purpose is for when writing data is very expensive (slow) when compared to reading, eg. writing to flash memory or EEPROM.
No other sorting algorithm has less data movement.

http://rosettacode.org/wiki/Soundex | Soundex | Soundex is an algorithm for creating indices for words based on their pronunciation.
Task
The goal is for homophones to be encoded to the same representation so that they can be matched despite minor differences in spelling (from the soundex Wikipedia article).
Caution
There is a major issue in many of the implementations concerning the separation of two consonants that have the same soundex code! According to the official Rules [[1]]. So check for instance if Ashcraft is coded to A-261.
If a vowel (A, E, I, O, U) separates two consonants that have the same soundex code, the consonant to the right of the vowel is coded. Tymczak is coded as T-522 (T, 5 for the M, 2 for the C, Z ignored (see "Side-by-Side" rule above), 2 for the K). Since the vowel "A" separates the Z and K, the K is coded.
If "H" or "W" separate two consonants that have the same soundex code, the consonant to the right of the vowel is not coded. Example: Ashcraft is coded A-261 (A, 2 for the S, C ignored, 6 for the R, 1 for the F). It is not coded A-226.

Task
Sort an array of elements using the Shell sort algorithm, a diminishing increment sort.
The Shell sort (also known as Shellsort or Shell's method) is named after its inventor, Donald Shell, who published the algorithm in 1959.
Shell sort is a sequence of interleaved insertion sorts based on an increment sequence.
The increment size is reduced after each pass until the increment size is 1.
With an increment size of 1, the sort is a basic insertion sort, but by this time the data is guaranteed to be almost sorted, which is insertion sort's "best case".
Any sequence will sort the data as long as it ends in 1, but some work better than others.
Empirical studies have shown a geometric increment sequence with a ratio of about 2.2 work well in practice.
[1]
Other good sequences are found at the On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences.

Data Structure
This illustrates a data structure, a means of storing data within a program.
You may see other such structures in the Data Structures category.
A stack is a container of elements with last in, first out access policy. Sometimes it also called LIFO.
The stack is accessed through its top.
The basic stack operations are:
push stores a new element onto the stack top;
pop returns the last pushed stack element, while removing it from the stack;
empty tests if the stack contains no elements.
Sometimes the last pushed stack element is made accessible for immutable access (for read) or mutable access (for write):
top (sometimes called peek to keep with the p theme) returns the topmost element without modifying the stack.
Stacks allow a very simple hardware implementation.
They are common in almost all processors.
In programming, stacks are also very popular for their way (LIFO) of resource management, usually memory.
Nested scopes of language objects are naturally implemented by a stack (sometimes by multiple stacks).
This is a classical way to implement local variables of a re-entrant or recursive subprogram. Stacks are also used to describe a formal computational framework.
See stack machine.
Many algorithms in pattern matching, compiler construction (e.g. recursive descent parsers), and machine learning (e.g. based on tree traversal) have a natural representation in terms of stacks.
Task
Create a stack supporting the basic operations: push, pop, empty.

Task
Sort an array (or list) elements using the quicksort algorithm.
The elements must have a strict weak order and the index of the array can be of any discrete type.
For languages where this is not possible, sort an array of integers.
Quicksort, also known as partition-exchange sort, uses these steps.
Choose any element of the array to be the pivot.
Divide all other elements (except the pivot) into two partitions.
All elements less than the pivot must be in the first partition.
All elements greater than the pivot must be in the second partition.
Use recursion to sort both partitions.
Join the first sorted partition, the pivot, and the second sorted partition.
The best pivot creates partitions of equal length (or lengths differing by 1).
The worst pivot creates an empty partition (for example, if the pivot is the first or last element of a sorted array).
The run-time of Quicksort ranges from O(n log n) with the best pivots, to O(n2) with the worst pivots, where n is the number of elements in the array.
This is a simple quicksort algorithm, adapted from Wikipedia.
function quicksort(array)
less, equal, greater := three empty arrays
if length(array) > 1
pivot := select any element of array
for each x in array
if x < pivot then add x to less
if x = pivot then add x to equal
if x > pivot then add x to greater
quicksort(less)
quicksort(greater)
array := concatenate(less, equal, greater)
A better quicksort algorithm works in place, by swapping elements within the array, to avoid the memory allocation of more arrays.
function quicksort(array)
if length(array) > 1
pivot := select any element of array
left := first index of array
right := last index of array
while left ≤ right
while array[left] < pivot
left := left + 1
while array[right] > pivot
right := right - 1
if left ≤ right
swap array[left] with array[right]
left := left + 1
right := right - 1
quicksort(array from first index to right)
quicksort(array from left to last index)
Quicksort has a reputation as the fastest sort. Optimized variants of quicksort are common features of many languages and libraries. One often contrasts quicksort with merge sort, because both sorts have an average time of O(n log n).
"On average, mergesort does fewer comparisons than quicksort, so it may be better when complicated comparison routines are used. Mergesort also takes advantage of pre-existing order, so it would be favored for using sort() to merge several sorted arrays. On the other hand, quicksort is often faster for small arrays, and on arrays of a few distinct values, repeated many times." — http://perldoc.perl.org/sort.html
Quicksort is at one end of the spectrum of divide-and-conquer algorithms, with merge sort at the opposite end.
Quicksort is a conquer-then-divide algorithm, which does most of the work during the partitioning and the recursive calls. The subsequent reassembly of the sorted partitions involves trivial effort.
Merge sort is a divide-then-conquer algorithm. The partioning happens in a trivial way, by splitting the input array in half. Most of the work happens during the recursive calls and the merge phase.
With quicksort, every element in the first partition is less than or equal to every element in the second partition. Therefore, the merge phase of quicksort is so trivial that it needs no mention!
This task has not specified whether to allocate new arrays, or sort in place. This task also has not specified how to choose the pivot element. (Common ways to are to choose the first element, the middle element, or the median of three elements.) Thus there is a variety among the following implementations.

An O(n2) sorting algorithm which moves elements one at a time into the correct position.
The algorithm consists of inserting one element at a time into the previously sorted part of the array, moving higher ranked elements up as necessary.
To start off, the first (or smallest, or any arbitrary) element of the unsorted array is considered to be the sorted part.
Although insertion sort is an O(n2) algorithm, its simplicity, low overhead, good locality of reference and efficiency make it a good choice in two cases:
small n,
as the final finishing-off algorithm for O(n logn) algorithms such as mergesort and quicksort.
The algorithm is as follows (from wikipedia):
function insertionSort(array A)
for i from 1 to length[A]-1 do
value := A[i]
j := i-1
while j >= 0 and A[j] > value do
A[j+1] := A[j]
j := j-1
done
A[j+1] = value
done
Writing the algorithm for integers will suffice.

This page uses content from Wikipedia. The original article was at Heapsort. The list of authors can be seen in the page history. As with Rosetta Code, the text of Wikipedia is available under the GNU FDL. (See links for details on variance)
Heapsort is an in-place sorting algorithm with worst case and average complexity of O(n logn).
The basic idea is to turn the array into a binary heap structure, which has the property that it allows efficient retrieval and removal of the maximal element.
We repeatedly "remove" the maximal element from the heap, thus building the sorted list from back to front.
A heap sort requires random access, so can only be used on an array-like data structure.
Pseudocode:
function heapSort(a, count) is
input: an unordered array a of length count
(first place a in max-heap order)
heapify(a, count)
end := count - 1
while end > 0 do
(swap the root(maximum value) of the heap with the
last element of the heap)
swap(a[end], a[0])
(decrement the size of the heap so that the previous
max value will stay in its proper place)
end := end - 1
(put the heap back in max-heap order)
siftDown(a, 0, end)
function heapify(a,count) is
(start is assigned the index in a of the last parent node)
start := (count - 2) / 2
while start ≥ 0 do
(sift down the node at index start to the proper place
such that all nodes below the start index are in heap
order)
siftDown(a, start, count-1)
start := start - 1
(after sifting down the root all nodes/elements are in heap order)

The merge sort is a recursive sort of order n*log(n).
It is notable for having a worst case and average complexity of O(n*log(n)), and a best case complexity of O(n) (for pre-sorted input).
The basic idea is to split the collection into smaller groups by halving it until the groups only have one element or no elements (which are both entirely sorted groups).
Then merge the groups back together so that their elements are in order.
This is how the algorithm gets its divide and conquer description.
Task
Write a function to sort a collection of integers using the merge sort.
The merge sort algorithm comes in two parts:
a sort function and
a merge function
The functions in pseudocode look like this:
function mergesort(m)
var list left, right, result
if length(m) ≤ 1
return m
else
var middle = length(m) / 2
for each x in m up to middle - 1
add x to left
for each x in m at and after middle
add x to right
left = mergesort(left)
right = mergesort(right)
if last(left) ≤ first(right)
append right to left
return left
result = merge(left, right)
return result
function merge(left,right)
var list result
while length(left) > 0 and length(right) > 0
if first(left) ≤ first(right)
append first(left) to result
left = rest(left)
else
append first(right) to result
right = rest(right)
if length(left) > 0
append rest(left) to result
if length(right) > 0
append rest(right) to result
return result
See also
the Wikipedia entry: merge sort
Note: better performance can be expected if, rather than recursing until length(m) ≤ 1, an insertion sort is used for length(m) smaller than some threshold larger than 1. However, this complicates the example code, so it is not shown here.

Task
Sort an array of integers (of any convenient size) into ascending order using Pancake sorting.
In short, instead of individual elements being sorted, the only operation allowed is to "flip" one end of the list, like so:
Before: 6 7 8 9 2 5 3 4 1
After: 9 8 7 6 2 5 3 4 1
Only one end of the list can be flipped; this should be the low end, but the high end is okay if it's easier to code or works better, but it must be the same end for the entire solution. (The end flipped can't be arbitrarily changed.)
Show both the initial, unsorted list and the final sorted list.
(Intermediate steps during sorting are optional.)
Optimizations are optional (but recommended).

Task
Sort an array (or list) of elements using the Selection sort algorithm.
It works as follows:
First find the smallest element in the array and exchange it with the element in the first position, then find the second smallest element and exchange it with the element in the second position, and continue in this way until the entire array is sorted.
Its asymptotic complexity is O(n2) making it inefficient on large arrays.
Its primary purpose is for when writing data is very expensive (slow) when compared to reading, eg. writing to flash memory or EEPROM.
No other sorting algorithm has less data movement.

http://rosettacode.org/wiki/Soundex | Soundex | Soundex is an algorithm for creating indices for words based on their pronunciation.
Task
The goal is for homophones to be encoded to the same representation so that they can be matched despite minor differences in spelling (from the soundex Wikipedia article).
Caution
There is a major issue in many of the implementations concerning the separation of two consonants that have the same soundex code! According to the official Rules [[1]]. So check for instance if Ashcraft is coded to A-261.
If a vowel (A, E, I, O, U) separates two consonants that have the same soundex code, the consonant to the right of the vowel is coded. Tymczak is coded as T-522 (T, 5 for the M, 2 for the C, Z ignored (see "Side-by-Side" rule above), 2 for the K). Since the vowel "A" separates the Z and K, the K is coded.
If "H" or "W" separate two consonants that have the same soundex code, the consonant to the right of the vowel is not coded. Example: Ashcraft is coded A-261 (A, 2 for the S, C ignored, 6 for the R, 1 for the F). It is not coded A-226.

Sort an array of elements using the Shell sort algorithm, a diminishing increment sort.
The Shell sort (also known as Shellsort or Shell's method) is named after its inventor, Donald Shell, who published the algorithm in 1959.
Shell sort is a sequence of interleaved insertion sorts based on an increment sequence.
The increment size is reduced after each pass until the increment size is 1.
With an increment size of 1, the sort is a basic insertion sort, but by this time the data is guaranteed to be almost sorted, which is insertion sort's "best case".
Any sequence will sort the data as long as it ends in 1, but some work better than others.
Empirical studies have shown a geometric increment sequence with a ratio of about 2.2 work well in practice.

http://rosettacode.org/wiki/Stack | Stack |
Data Structure
This illustrates a data structure, a means of storing data within a program.
You may see other such structures in the Data Structures category.
A stack is a container of elements with last in, first out access policy. Sometimes it also called LIFO.
The stack is accessed through its top.
The basic stack operations are:
push stores a new element onto the stack top;
pop returns the last pushed stack element, while removing it from the stack;
empty tests if the stack contains no elements.
Sometimes the last pushed stack element is made accessible for immutable access (for read) or mutable access (for write):
top (sometimes called peek to keep with the p theme) returns the topmost element without modifying the stack.
Stacks allow a very simple hardware implementation.
They are common in almost all processors.
In programming, stacks are also very popular for their way (LIFO) of resource management, usually memory.
Nested scopes of language objects are naturally implemented by a stack (sometimes by multiple stacks).
This is a classical way to implement local variables of a re-entrant or recursive subprogram. Stacks are also used to describe a formal computational framework.
See stack machine.
Many algorithms in pattern matching, compiler construction (e.g. recursive descent parsers), and machine learning (e.g. based on tree traversal) have a natural representation in terms of stacks.
Task
Create a stack supporting the basic operations: push, pop, empty.

Task
Sort an array (or list) elements using the quicksort algorithm.
The elements must have a strict weak order and the index of the array can be of any discrete type.
For languages where this is not possible, sort an array of integers.
Quicksort, also known as partition-exchange sort, uses these steps.
Choose any element of the array to be the pivot.
Divide all other elements (except the pivot) into two partitions.
All elements less than the pivot must be in the first partition.
All elements greater than the pivot must be in the second partition.
Use recursion to sort both partitions.
Join the first sorted partition, the pivot, and the second sorted partition.
The best pivot creates partitions of equal length (or lengths differing by 1).
The worst pivot creates an empty partition (for example, if the pivot is the first or last element of a sorted array).
The run-time of Quicksort ranges from O(n log n) with the best pivots, to O(n2) with the worst pivots, where n is the number of elements in the array.
This is a simple quicksort algorithm, adapted from Wikipedia.

if x > pivot then add x to greater
quicksort(less)
quicksort(greater)
array := concatenate(less, equal, greater)
A better quicksort algorithm works in place, by swapping elements within the array, to avoid the memory allocation of more arrays.
function quicksort(array)
if length(array) > 1
pivot := select any element of array
left := first index of array
right := last index of array
while left ≤ right
while array[left] < pivot
left := left + 1
while array[right] > pivot
right := right - 1
if left ≤ right
swap array[left] with array[right]
left := left + 1
right := right - 1
quicksort(array from first index to right)
quicksort(array from left to last index)
Quicksort has a reputation as the fastest sort. Optimized variants of quicksort are common features of many languages and libraries. One often contrasts quicksort with merge sort, because both sorts have an average time of O(n log n).
"On average, mergesort does fewer comparisons than quicksort, so it may be better when complicated comparison routines are used. Mergesort also takes advantage of pre-existing order, so it would be favored for using sort() to merge several sorted arrays. On the other hand, quicksort is often faster for small arrays, and on arrays of a few distinct values, repeated many times." — http://perldoc.perl.org/sort.html
Quicksort is at one end of the spectrum of divide-and-conquer algorithms, with merge sort at the opposite end.
Quicksort is a conquer-then-divide algorithm, which does most of the work during the partitioning and the recursive calls. The subsequent reassembly of the sorted partitions involves trivial effort.
Merge sort is a divide-then-conquer algorithm. The partioning happens in a trivial way, by splitting the input array in half. Most of the work happens during the recursive calls and the merge phase.
With quicksort, every element in the first partition is less than or equal to every element in the second partition. Therefore, the merge phase of quicksort is so trivial that it needs no mention!
This task has not specified whether to allocate new arrays, or sort in place. This task also has not specified how to choose the pivot element. (Common ways to are to choose the first element, the middle element, or the median of three elements.) Thus there is a variety among the following implementations.
| #Elixir | Elixir | defmodule Sort do
def qsort([]), do: []
def qsort([h | t]) do
{lesser, greater} = Enum.split_with(t, &(&1 < h))
qsort(lesser) ++ [h] ++ qsort(greater)
end

An O(n2) sorting algorithm which moves elements one at a time into the correct position.
The algorithm consists of inserting one element at a time into the previously sorted part of the array, moving higher ranked elements up as necessary.
To start off, the first (or smallest, or any arbitrary) element of the unsorted array is considered to be the sorted part.
Although insertion sort is an O(n2) algorithm, its simplicity, low overhead, good locality of reference and efficiency make it a good choice in two cases:
small n,
as the final finishing-off algorithm for O(n logn) algorithms such as mergesort and quicksort.
The algorithm is as follows (from wikipedia):
function insertionSort(array A)
for i from 1 to length[A]-1 do
value := A[i]
j := i-1
while j >= 0 and A[j] > value do
A[j+1] := A[j]
j := j-1
done
A[j+1] = value
done
Writing the algorithm for integers will suffice.

Heapsort is an in-place sorting algorithm with worst case and average complexity of O(n logn).
The basic idea is to turn the array into a binary heap structure, which has the property that it allows efficient retrieval and removal of the maximal element.
We repeatedly "remove" the maximal element from the heap, thus building the sorted list from back to front.
A heap sort requires random access, so can only be used on an array-like data structure.
Pseudocode:
function heapSort(a, count) is
input: an unordered array a of length count
(first place a in max-heap order)
heapify(a, count)
end := count - 1
while end > 0 do
(swap the root(maximum value) of the heap with the
last element of the heap)
swap(a[end], a[0])
(decrement the size of the heap so that the previous
max value will stay in its proper place)
end := end - 1
(put the heap back in max-heap order)
siftDown(a, 0, end)
function heapify(a,count) is
(start is assigned the index in a of the last parent node)
start := (count - 2) / 2
while start ≥ 0 do
(sift down the node at index start to the proper place
such that all nodes below the start index are in heap
order)
siftDown(a, start, count-1)
start := start - 1
(after sifting down the root all nodes/elements are in heap order)
function siftDown(a, start, end) is
(end represents the limit of how far down the heap to sift)
root := start
while root * 2 + 1 ≤ end do (While the root has at least one child)
child := root * 2 + 1 (root*2+1 points to the left child)
(If the child has a sibling and the child's value is less than its sibling's...)
if child + 1 ≤ end and a[child] < a[child + 1] then
child := child + 1 (... then point to the right child instead)
if a[root] < a[child] then (out of max-heap order)
swap(a[root], a[child])
root := child (repeat to continue sifting down the child now)
else
return

The merge sort is a recursive sort of order n*log(n).
It is notable for having a worst case and average complexity of O(n*log(n)), and a best case complexity of O(n) (for pre-sorted input).
The basic idea is to split the collection into smaller groups by halving it until the groups only have one element or no elements (which are both entirely sorted groups).
Then merge the groups back together so that their elements are in order.
This is how the algorithm gets its divide and conquer description.
Task
Write a function to sort a collection of integers using the merge sort.
The merge sort algorithm comes in two parts:
a sort function and
a merge function
The functions in pseudocode look like this:
function mergesort(m)
var list left, right, result
if length(m) ≤ 1
return m
else
var middle = length(m) / 2
for each x in m up to middle - 1
add x to left
for each x in m at and after middle
add x to right
left = mergesort(left)
right = mergesort(right)
if last(left) ≤ first(right)
append right to left
return left
result = merge(left, right)
return result
function merge(left,right)
var list result
while length(left) > 0 and length(right) > 0
if first(left) ≤ first(right)
append first(left) to result
left = rest(left)
else
append first(right) to result
right = rest(right)
if length(left) > 0
append rest(left) to result
if length(right) > 0
append rest(right) to result
return result
See also
the Wikipedia entry: merge sort
Note: better performance can be expected if, rather than recursing until length(m) ≤ 1, an insertion sort is used for length(m) smaller than some threshold larger than 1. However, this complicates the example code, so it is not shown here.

Task
Sort an array of integers (of any convenient size) into ascending order using Pancake sorting.
In short, instead of individual elements being sorted, the only operation allowed is to "flip" one end of the list, like so:
Before: 6 7 8 9 2 5 3 4 1
After: 9 8 7 6 2 5 3 4 1
Only one end of the list can be flipped; this should be the low end, but the high end is okay if it's easier to code or works better, but it must be the same end for the entire solution. (The end flipped can't be arbitrarily changed.)
Show both the initial, unsorted list and the final sorted list.
(Intermediate steps during sorting are optional.)
Optimizations are optional (but recommended).

Task
Sort an array (or list) of elements using the Selection sort algorithm.
It works as follows:
First find the smallest element in the array and exchange it with the element in the first position, then find the second smallest element and exchange it with the element in the second position, and continue in this way until the entire array is sorted.
Its asymptotic complexity is O(n2) making it inefficient on large arrays.
Its primary purpose is for when writing data is very expensive (slow) when compared to reading, eg. writing to flash memory or EEPROM.
No other sorting algorithm has less data movement.

http://rosettacode.org/wiki/Soundex | Soundex | Soundex is an algorithm for creating indices for words based on their pronunciation.
Task
The goal is for homophones to be encoded to the same representation so that they can be matched despite minor differences in spelling (from the soundex Wikipedia article).
Caution
There is a major issue in many of the implementations concerning the separation of two consonants that have the same soundex code! According to the official Rules [[1]]. So check for instance if Ashcraft is coded to A-261.
If a vowel (A, E, I, O, U) separates two consonants that have the same soundex code, the consonant to the right of the vowel is coded. Tymczak is coded as T-522 (T, 5 for the M, 2 for the C, Z ignored (see "Side-by-Side" rule above), 2 for the K). Since the vowel "A" separates the Z and K, the K is coded.
If "H" or "W" separate two consonants that have the same soundex code, the consonant to the right of the vowel is not coded. Example: Ashcraft is coded A-261 (A, 2 for the S, C ignored, 6 for the R, 1 for the F). It is not coded A-226.

Task
Sort an array of elements using the Shell sort algorithm, a diminishing increment sort.
The Shell sort (also known as Shellsort or Shell's method) is named after its inventor, Donald Shell, who published the algorithm in 1959.
Shell sort is a sequence of interleaved insertion sorts based on an increment sequence.
The increment size is reduced after each pass until the increment size is 1.
With an increment size of 1, the sort is a basic insertion sort, but by this time the data is guaranteed to be almost sorted, which is insertion sort's "best case".
Any sequence will sort the data as long as it ends in 1, but some work better than others.
Empirical studies have shown a geometric increment sequence with a ratio of about 2.2 work well in practice.

Other good sequences are found at the On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences.

Data Structure
This illustrates a data structure, a means of storing data within a program.
You may see other such structures in the Data Structures category.
A stack is a container of elements with last in, first out access policy. Sometimes it also called LIFO.
The stack is accessed through its top.
The basic stack operations are:
push stores a new element onto the stack top;
pop returns the last pushed stack element, while removing it from the stack;
empty tests if the stack contains no elements.
Sometimes the last pushed stack element is made accessible for immutable access (for read) or mutable access (for write):
top (sometimes called peek to keep with the p theme) returns the topmost element without modifying the stack.
Stacks allow a very simple hardware implementation.
They are common in almost all processors.
In programming, stacks are also very popular for their way (LIFO) of resource management, usually memory.
Nested scopes of language objects are naturally implemented by a stack (sometimes by multiple stacks).
This is a classical way to implement local variables of a re-entrant or recursive subprogram. Stacks are also used to describe a formal computational framework.
See stack machine.
Many algorithms in pattern matching, compiler construction (e.g. recursive descent parsers), and machine learning (e.g. based on tree traversal) have a natural representation in terms of stacks.
Task
Create a stack supporting the basic operations: push, pop, empty.

Task
Sort an array (or list) elements using the quicksort algorithm.
The elements must have a strict weak order and the index of the array can be of any discrete type.
For languages where this is not possible, sort an array of integers.
Quicksort, also known as partition-exchange sort, uses these steps.
Choose any element of the array to be the pivot.
Divide all other elements (except the pivot) into two partitions.
All elements less than the pivot must be in the first partition.
All elements greater than the pivot must be in the second partition.
Use recursion to sort both partitions.
Join the first sorted partition, the pivot, and the second sorted partition.
The best pivot creates partitions of equal length (or lengths differing by 1).
The worst pivot creates an empty partition (for example, if the pivot is the first or last element of a sorted array).
The run-time of Quicksort ranges from O(n log n) with the best pivots, to O(n2) with the worst pivots, where n is the number of elements in the array.
This is a simple quicksort algorithm, adapted from Wikipedia.
function quicksort(array)
less, equal, greater := three empty arrays
if length(array) > 1
pivot := select any element of array
for each x in array
if x < pivot then add x to less
if x = pivot then add x to equal
if x > pivot then add x to greater
quicksort(less)
quicksort(greater)
array := concatenate(less, equal, greater)
A better quicksort algorithm works in place, by swapping elements within the array, to avoid the memory allocation of more arrays.
function quicksort(array)
if length(array) > 1
pivot := select any element of array
left := first index of array
right := last index of array
while left ≤ right
while array[left] < pivot
left := left + 1
while array[right] > pivot
right := right - 1
if left ≤ right
swap array[left] with array[right]
left := left + 1
right := right - 1
quicksort(array from first index to right)
quicksort(array from left to last index)
Quicksort has a reputation as the fastest sort. Optimized variants of quicksort are common features of many languages and libraries. One often contrasts quicksort with merge sort, because both sorts have an average time of O(n log n).
"On average, mergesort does fewer comparisons than quicksort, so it may be better when complicated comparison routines are used. Mergesort also takes advantage of pre-existing order, so it would be favored for using sort() to merge several sorted arrays. On the other hand, quicksort is often faster for small arrays, and on arrays of a few distinct values, repeated many times." — http://perldoc.perl.org/sort.html
Quicksort is at one end of the spectrum of divide-and-conquer algorithms, with merge sort at the opposite end.
Quicksort is a conquer-then-divide algorithm, which does most of the work during the partitioning and the recursive calls. The subsequent reassembly of the sorted partitions involves trivial effort.
Merge sort is a divide-then-conquer algorithm. The partioning happens in a trivial way, by splitting the input array in half. Most of the work happens during the recursive calls and the merge phase.
With quicksort, every element in the first partition is less than or equal to every element in the second partition. Therefore, the merge phase of quicksort is so trivial that it needs no mention!
This task has not specified whether to allocate new arrays, or sort in place. This task also has not specified how to choose the pivot element. (Common ways to are to choose the first element, the middle element, or the median of three elements.) Thus there is a variety among the following implementations.
| #Erlang | Erlang |
-module( quicksort ).
-export( [qsort/1] ).
qsort([]) -> [];
qsort([X|Xs]) ->
qsort([ Y || Y <- Xs, Y < X]) ++ [X] ++ qsort([ Y || Y <- Xs, Y >= X]).

An O(n2) sorting algorithm which moves elements one at a time into the correct position.
The algorithm consists of inserting one element at a time into the previously sorted part of the array, moving higher ranked elements up as necessary.
To start off, the first (or smallest, or any arbitrary) element of the unsorted array is considered to be the sorted part.
Although insertion sort is an O(n2) algorithm, its simplicity, low overhead, good locality of reference and efficiency make it a good choice in two cases:
small n,
as the final finishing-off algorithm for O(n logn) algorithms such as mergesort and quicksort.
The algorithm is as follows (from wikipedia):
function insertionSort(array A)
for i from 1 to length[A]-1 do
value := A[i]
j := i-1
while j >= 0 and A[j] > value do
A[j+1] := A[j]
j := j-1
done
A[j+1] = value
done
Writing the algorithm for integers will suffice.

Heapsort is an in-place sorting algorithm with worst case and average complexity of O(n logn).
The basic idea is to turn the array into a binary heap structure, which has the property that it allows efficient retrieval and removal of the maximal element.
We repeatedly "remove" the maximal element from the heap, thus building the sorted list from back to front.
A heap sort requires random access, so can only be used on an array-like data structure.
Pseudocode:
function heapSort(a, count) is
input: an unordered array a of length count
(first place a in max-heap order)
heapify(a, count)
end := count - 1
while end > 0 do
(swap the root(maximum value) of the heap with the
last element of the heap)
swap(a[end], a[0])
(decrement the size of the heap so that the previous
max value will stay in its proper place)
end := end - 1
(put the heap back in max-heap order)
siftDown(a, 0, end)
function heapify(a,count) is
(start is assigned the index in a of the last parent node)
start := (count - 2) / 2
while start ≥ 0 do
(sift down the node at index start to the proper place
such that all nodes below the start index are in heap
order)
siftDown(a, start, count-1)
start := start - 1
(after sifting down the root all nodes/elements are in heap order)
function siftDown(a, start, end) is
(end represents the limit of how far down the heap to sift)
root := start
while root * 2 + 1 ≤ end do (While the root has at least one child)
child := root * 2 + 1 (root*2+1 points to the left child)
(If the child has a sibling and the child's value is less than its sibling's...)
if child + 1 ≤ end and a[child] < a[child + 1] then
child := child + 1 (... then point to the right child instead)
if a[root] < a[child] then (out of max-heap order)
swap(a[root], a[child])
root := child (repeat to continue sifting down the child now)
else
return

The merge sort is a recursive sort of order n*log(n).
It is notable for having a worst case and average complexity of O(n*log(n)), and a best case complexity of O(n) (for pre-sorted input).
The basic idea is to split the collection into smaller groups by halving it until the groups only have one element or no elements (which are both entirely sorted groups).
Then merge the groups back together so that their elements are in order.
This is how the algorithm gets its divide and conquer description.
Task
Write a function to sort a collection of integers using the merge sort.
The merge sort algorithm comes in two parts:
a sort function and
a merge function
The functions in pseudocode look like this:
function mergesort(m)
var list left, right, result
if length(m) ≤ 1
return m
else
var middle = length(m) / 2
for each x in m up to middle - 1
add x to left
for each x in m at and after middle
add x to right
left = mergesort(left)
right = mergesort(right)
if last(left) ≤ first(right)
append right to left
return left
result = merge(left, right)
return result
function merge(left,right)
var list result
while length(left) > 0 and length(right) > 0
if first(left) ≤ first(right)
append first(left) to result
left = rest(left)
else
append first(right) to result
right = rest(right)
if length(left) > 0
append rest(left) to result
if length(right) > 0
append rest(right) to result
return result
See also
the Wikipedia entry: merge sort
Note: better performance can be expected if, rather than recursing until length(m) ≤ 1, an insertion sort is used for length(m) smaller than some threshold larger than 1. However, this complicates the example code, so it is not shown here.

Task
Sort an array of integers (of any convenient size) into ascending order using Pancake sorting.
In short, instead of individual elements being sorted, the only operation allowed is to "flip" one end of the list, like so:
Before: 6 7 8 9 2 5 3 4 1
After: 9 8 7 6 2 5 3 4 1
Only one end of the list can be flipped; this should be the low end, but the high end is okay if it's easier to code or works better, but it must be the same end for the entire solution. (The end flipped can't be arbitrarily changed.)
Show both the initial, unsorted list and the final sorted list.
(Intermediate steps during sorting are optional.)
Optimizations are optional (but recommended).

Task
Sort an array of integers (of any convenient size) into ascending order using Pancake sorting.
In short, instead of individual elements being sorted, the only operation allowed is to "flip" one end of the list, like so:
Before: 6 7 8 9 2 5 3 4 1
After: 9 8 7 6 2 5 3 4 1
Only one end of the list can be flipped; this should be the low end, but the high end is okay if it's easier to code or works better, but it must be the same end for the entire solution. (The end flipped can't be arbitrarily changed.)
Show both the initial, unsorted list and the final sorted list.
(Intermediate steps during sorting are optional.)
Optimizations are optional (but recommended).

Task
Sort an array (or list) of elements using the Selection sort algorithm.
It works as follows:
First find the smallest element in the array and exchange it with the element in the first position, then find the second smallest element and exchange it with the element in the second position, and continue in this way until the entire array is sorted.
Its asymptotic complexity is O(n2) making it inefficient on large arrays.
Its primary purpose is for when writing data is very expensive (slow) when compared to reading, eg. writing to flash memory or EEPROM.
No other sorting algorithm has less data movement.

http://rosettacode.org/wiki/Soundex | Soundex | Soundex is an algorithm for creating indices for words based on their pronunciation.
Task
The goal is for homophones to be encoded to the same representation so that they can be matched despite minor differences in spelling (from the soundex Wikipedia article).
Caution
There is a major issue in many of the implementations concerning the separation of two consonants that have the same soundex code! According to the official Rules [[1]]. So check for instance if Ashcraft is coded to A-261.
If a vowel (A, E, I, O, U) separates two consonants that have the same soundex code, the consonant to the right of the vowel is coded. Tymczak is coded as T-522 (T, 5 for the M, 2 for the C, Z ignored (see "Side-by-Side" rule above), 2 for the K). Since the vowel "A" separates the Z and K, the K is coded.
If "H" or "W" separate two consonants that have the same soundex code, the consonant to the right of the vowel is not coded. Example: Ashcraft is coded A-261 (A, 2 for the S, C ignored, 6 for the R, 1 for the F). It is not coded A-226.

Task
Sort an array of elements using the Shell sort algorithm, a diminishing increment sort.
The Shell sort (also known as Shellsort or Shell's method) is named after its inventor, Donald Shell, who published the algorithm in 1959.
Shell sort is a sequence of interleaved insertion sorts based on an increment sequence.
The increment size is reduced after each pass until the increment size is 1.
With an increment size of 1, the sort is a basic insertion sort, but by this time the data is guaranteed to be almost sorted, which is insertion sort's "best case".
Any sequence will sort the data as long as it ends in 1, but some work better than others.
Empirical studies have shown a geometric increment sequence with a ratio of about 2.2 work well in practice.

http://rosettacode.org/wiki/Stack | Stack |
Data Structure
This illustrates a data structure, a means of storing data within a program.
You may see other such structures in the Data Structures category.
A stack is a container of elements with last in, first out access policy. Sometimes it also called LIFO.
The stack is accessed through its top.
The basic stack operations are:
push stores a new element onto the stack top;
pop returns the last pushed stack element, while removing it from the stack;
empty tests if the stack contains no elements.
Sometimes the last pushed stack element is made accessible for immutable access (for read) or mutable access (for write):
top (sometimes called peek to keep with the p theme) returns the topmost element without modifying the stack.
Stacks allow a very simple hardware implementation.
They are common in almost all processors.
In programming, stacks are also very popular for their way (LIFO) of resource management, usually memory.
Nested scopes of language objects are naturally implemented by a stack (sometimes by multiple stacks).
This is a classical way to implement local variables of a re-entrant or recursive subprogram. Stacks are also used to describe a formal computational framework.
See stack machine.
Many algorithms in pattern matching, compiler construction (e.g. recursive descent parsers), and machine learning (e.g. based on tree traversal) have a natural representation in terms of stacks.
Task
Create a stack supporting the basic operations: push, pop, empty.

Task
Sort an array (or list) elements using the quicksort algorithm.
The elements must have a strict weak order and the index of the array can be of any discrete type.
For languages where this is not possible, sort an array of integers.
Quicksort, also known as partition-exchange sort, uses these steps.
Choose any element of the array to be the pivot.
Divide all other elements (except the pivot) into two partitions.
All elements less than the pivot must be in the first partition.
All elements greater than the pivot must be in the second partition.
Use recursion to sort both partitions.
Join the first sorted partition, the pivot, and the second sorted partition.
The best pivot creates partitions of equal length (or lengths differing by 1).
The worst pivot creates an empty partition (for example, if the pivot is the first or last element of a sorted array).
The run-time of Quicksort ranges from O(n log n) with the best pivots, to O(n2) with the worst pivots, where n is the number of elements in the array.
This is a simple quicksort algorithm, adapted from Wikipedia.
function quicksort(array)
less, equal, greater := three empty arrays
if length(array) > 1
pivot := select any element of array
for each x in array
if x < pivot then add x to less
if x = pivot then add x to equal
if x > pivot then add x to greater
quicksort(less)
quicksort(greater)
array := concatenate(less, equal, greater)
A better quicksort algorithm works in place, by swapping elements within the array, to avoid the memory allocation of more arrays.
function quicksort(array)
if length(array) > 1
pivot := select any element of array
left := first index of array
right := last index of array
while left ≤ right
while array[left] < pivot
left := left + 1
while array[right] > pivot
right := right - 1
if left ≤ right
swap array[left] with array[right]
left := left + 1
right := right - 1
quicksort(array from first index to right)
quicksort(array from left to last index)
Quicksort has a reputation as the fastest sort. Optimized variants of quicksort are common features of many languages and libraries. One often contrasts quicksort with merge sort, because both sorts have an average time of O(n log n).
"On average, mergesort does fewer comparisons than quicksort, so it may be better when complicated comparison routines are used. Mergesort also takes advantage of pre-existing order, so it would be favored for using sort() to merge several sorted arrays. On the other hand, quicksort is often faster for small arrays, and on arrays of a few distinct values, repeated many times." — http://perldoc.perl.org/sort.html
Quicksort is at one end of the spectrum of divide-and-conquer algorithms, with merge sort at the opposite end.
Quicksort is a conquer-then-divide algorithm, which does most of the work during the partitioning and the recursive calls. The subsequent reassembly of the sorted partitions involves trivial effort.
Merge sort is a divide-then-conquer algorithm. The partioning happens in a trivial way, by splitting the input array in half. Most of the work happens during the recursive calls and the merge phase.
With quicksort, every element in the first partition is less than or equal to every element in the second partition. Therefore, the merge phase of quicksort is so trivial that it needs no mention!
This task has not specified whether to allocate new arrays, or sort in place. This task also has not specified how to choose the pivot element. (Common ways to are to choose the first element, the middle element, or the median of three elements.) Thus there is a variety among the following implementations.
| #Emacs_Lisp | Emacs Lisp | (require 'seq)
(defun quicksort (xs)
(if (null xs)
()
(let* ((head (car xs))
(tail (cdr xs))
(lower-part (quicksort (seq-filter (lambda (x) (<= x head)) tail)))
(higher-part (quicksort (seq-filter (lambda (x) (> x head)) tail))))
(append lower-part (list head) higher-part)))) |

An O(n2) sorting algorithm which moves elements one at a time into the correct position.
The algorithm consists of inserting one element at a time into the previously sorted part of the array, moving higher ranked elements up as necessary.
To start off, the first (or smallest, or any arbitrary) element of the unsorted array is considered to be the sorted part.
Although insertion sort is an O(n2) algorithm, its simplicity, low overhead, good locality of reference and efficiency make it a good choice in two cases:
small n,
as the final finishing-off algorithm for O(n logn) algorithms such as mergesort and quicksort.
The algorithm is as follows (from wikipedia):
function insertionSort(array A)
for i from 1 to length[A]-1 do
value := A[i]
j := i-1
while j >= 0 and A[j] > value do
A[j+1] := A[j]
j := j-1
done
A[j+1] = value
done
Writing the algorithm for integers will suffice.

Heapsort is an in-place sorting algorithm with worst case and average complexity of O(n logn).
The basic idea is to turn the array into a binary heap structure, which has the property that it allows efficient retrieval and removal of the maximal element.
We repeatedly "remove" the maximal element from the heap, thus building the sorted list from back to front.
A heap sort requires random access, so can only be used on an array-like data structure.
Pseudocode:
function heapSort(a, count) is
input: an unordered array a of length count
(first place a in max-heap order)
heapify(a, count)
end := count - 1
while end > 0 do
(swap the root(maximum value) of the heap with the
last element of the heap)
swap(a[end], a[0])
(decrement the size of the heap so that the previous
max value will stay in its proper place)
end := end - 1
(put the heap back in max-heap order)
siftDown(a, 0, end)
function heapify(a,count) is
(start is assigned the index in a of the last parent node)
start := (count - 2) / 2
while start ≥ 0 do
(sift down the node at index start to the proper place
such that all nodes below the start index are in heap
order)
siftDown(a, start, count-1)
start := start - 1
(after sifting down the root all nodes/elements are in heap order)
function siftDown(a, start, end) is
(end represents the limit of how far down the heap to sift)
root := start
while root * 2 + 1 ≤ end do (While the root has at least one child)
child := root * 2 + 1 (root*2+1 points to the left child)
(If the child has a sibling and the child's value is less than its sibling's...)
if child + 1 ≤ end and a[child] < a[child + 1] then
child := child + 1 (... then point to the right child instead)
if a[root] < a[child] then (out of max-heap order)
swap(a[root], a[child])
root := child (repeat to continue sifting down the child now)
else
return

Tree sort
The merge sort is a recursive sort of order n*log(n).
It is notable for having a worst case and average complexity of O(n*log(n)), and a best case complexity of O(n) (for pre-sorted input).
The basic idea is to split the collection into smaller groups by halving it until the groups only have one element or no elements (which are both entirely sorted groups).
Then merge the groups back together so that their elements are in order.
This is how the algorithm gets its divide and conquer description.
Task
Write a function to sort a collection of integers using the merge sort.
The merge sort algorithm comes in two parts:
a sort function and
a merge function
The functions in pseudocode look like this:
function mergesort(m)
var list left, right, result
if length(m) ≤ 1
return m
else
var middle = length(m) / 2
for each x in m up to middle - 1
add x to left
for each x in m at and after middle
add x to right
left = mergesort(left)
right = mergesort(right)
if last(left) ≤ first(right)
append right to left
return left
result = merge(left, right)
return result
function merge(left,right)
var list result
while length(left) > 0 and length(right) > 0
if first(left) ≤ first(right)
append first(left) to result
left = rest(left)
else
append first(right) to result
right = rest(right)
if length(left) > 0
append rest(left) to result
if length(right) > 0
append rest(right) to result
return result
See also
the Wikipedia entry: merge sort
Note: better performance can be expected if, rather than recursing until length(m) ≤ 1, an insertion sort is used for length(m) smaller than some threshold larger than 1. However, this complicates the example code, so it is not shown here.

Task
Sort an array of integers (of any convenient size) into ascending order using Pancake sorting.
In short, instead of individual elements being sorted, the only operation allowed is to "flip" one end of the list, like so:
Before: 6 7 8 9 2 5 3 4 1
After: 9 8 7 6 2 5 3 4 1
Only one end of the list can be flipped; this should be the low end, but the high end is okay if it's easier to code or works better, but it must be the same end for the entire solution. (The end flipped can't be arbitrarily changed.)
Show both the initial, unsorted list and the final sorted list.
(Intermediate steps during sorting are optional.)
Optimizations are optional (but recommended).
