Several sorting algorithms have been introduced and these include Bubble, Insertion, Selection, Shell, Quick, Merge and Heap. In this paper, we present a novel sorting algorithm, named Clump Sort, to take advantage of ordered segments already present in medical data sets. It succeeds in sorting the medical data considerably better than all the sorts except when using totally non-clumped data. In this test using totally nonclumped data, Heap sort does only slightly better than Clump sort. However, Clump sort has the advantage of being a stable sort as the original order of equal elements is preserved whereas in Heap sort, it is not since it does not guarantee that equal elements will appear in their original order after sorting. As such, Clump Sort will have considerably better data cache performance with both clumped and non-clumped data, outperforming Heap Sort on a modern desktop PC, because...

... Quick Sort Implementation Next, recall that our goal is to partition all remaining elements based on whether they are smaller than or greater than the pivot We will find two entries: – One larger than the pivot (staring from the front) – One smaller than the pivot (starting from the back) which are out of order and then correct the ordering – I.e., swap them 1 7.6.5 Quick Sort Implementation Continue doing so until the appropriate entries you find are actually in order The index to the larger entry we found would be the first large entry in the list (as seen from the left) Therefore, we could move this entry into the last entry of the list We can fill this spot with the pivot 2 7.6.5 Quick Sort Quick Sort Example First, we examine the first, middle, and last entries of the full list The span below will indicate which list we are currently sorting 3 7.6.5 Quick Sort Quick Sort Example We select 57 to be our pivot – We move 24 into the first location 4 7.6.5 Quick Sort Quick Sort Example Starting at the 2nd and 2nd-last locations: – we search forward until we find 70 > 57 – we search backward until we find 49 < 57 5 7.6.5 Quick Sort Quick Sort Example We swap 70 and 49, placing them in order with respect to eachother 6 7.6.5 Quick Sort Quick Sort Example We search forward until we find 97 > 57 We search backward until we find 16 < 57 7 7.6.5 Quick Sort Quick Sort Example ...

...Short Paper At the creation of the United States, the states were assumed to have the power and authority of self-governing nations. Each state has the general power to protect the health of its population within its geographic borders as long as the laws do not obstruct the rights of individuals guaranteed by the constitution. The federal government regulates health matters through the powers granted to the federal government in the federal constitution. This allows the federal government to create benefit programs and to indirectly regulate local activities that it would not have the authority to regulate directly. For example, the federal government created the Medicare program to pay for health care for the elderly and disabled, and Medicaid to pay for health care for the poor. Health care institutions that receive federal money in payment for services to Medicare and Medicaid recipients have to abide by federal regulations in order to keep receiving federal funds. According to Pozgar (2012), “a tort law is a civil wrong, other than a breach of contract, committed against a person or property for which a court provides a remedy in the form of an action for damages”. Within the general field of health care there is a good deal of discussion of tort law and health care because tort actions comprise what are more commonly known as medical malpractice or medical negligence actions. A medical malpractice or medical negligence suit can be raised against a physician or health...

Factorial program in cFactorial program in c: c code to find and print factorial of a number, three methods are given, first one uses for loop, second uses a function to find factorial and third using recursion. Factorial is represented using '!', so five factorial will be written as (5!), n factorial as (n!). Alson! = n*(n-1)*(n-2)*(n-3)...3.2.1 and zero factorial is defined as one i.e. 0! = 1. #include <stdio.h> int main() { int c, n, fact = 1; printf("Enter a number to calculate it's factorial\n"); scanf("%d", &n); for (c = 1; c <= n; c++) fact = fact * c; printf("Factorial of %d = %d\n", n, fact); return 0; } 2. c program to check odd or evenc program to check odd or even: We will determine whether a number is odd or even by using different methods all are provided with a code in c language. As you have study in mathematics that in decimal number system even numbers are divisible by 2 while odd are not so we may use modulus operator(%) which returns remainder, For example 4%3 gives 1 ( remainder when four is divided by three). Even numbers are of the form 2*p and odd are of the form (2*p+1) where p is is an integer. #include<stdio.h> main() { int n; printf("Enter an integer\n"); scanf("%d",&n); if ( n%2 == 0 ) printf("Even\n"); else printf("Odd\n"); return 0; } 3.

...1. Use class Sort.java provided in class, the dual-pivot Quicksort of Java 8 (Arrays.sort), and RadixSort.java provided in class. 2. Do the following for Mergesort, Quicksort, Heapsort and dual-pivot Quicksort: a. Create 100,000 random keys (of type long) and sort them. Repeat this 100 times. b. Compute the average CPU time taken to sort the keys for the four methods. c. Comment on the results and compare them to the average-case complexities discussed in class. As we discussed in the class, all these sorting algorithms I used for testing have the same average-case complexities with O (n log n). But the data I got which shows in the upper diagram illustrate that Quick sort is the most fast sorting method especially when you need to sort a large amount of data. Dual-pivot quicksort is also fast than merge sort and Heap sort. Heap sort can be used when the pending data between 1000-1000, 000, and for Merge sort is the first choice when there are more than 1M data. 3. Do the following for the four sorting methods of #2, and for Radix sort: a. Create 100,000 random strings of length 4 and sort them using the five sorting methods. b. Repeat (a) 10 times Compute the average CPU time taken to sort the keys for the five methods. c. Repeat (a) and (b) with strings of length 6, 8, 10. d.

...Here is an analysis of the time complexity of quick-sort in detail. In quick sort, we pick an element called the pivot in each step and re-arrange the array in such a way that all elements less than the pivot now appear to the left of the pivot, and all elements larger than the pivot appear on the right side of the pivot. In all subsequent iterations of the sorting algorithm, the position of this pivot will remain unchanged, because it has been put in its correct place. The total time taken to re-arrange the array as just described, is always O(n)1 , or αn where α is some constant [see footnote]. Let us suppose that the pivot we just chose has divided the array into two parts - one of size k and the other of size n − k. Notice that both these parts still need to be sorted. This gives us the following relation: T (n) = T (k) + T (n − k) + αn where T (n) refers to the time taken by the algorithm to sort n elements. WORST CASE ANALYSIS: Now consider the case, when the pivot happened to be the least element of the array, so that we had k = 1 and n − k = n − 1. In such a case, we have: T (n) = T (1) + T (n − 1) + αn Now let us analyse the time complexity of quick sort in such a case in detail by solving the recurrence as follows: T (n) = T (n − 1) + T (1) + αn = [T (n − 2) + T (1) + α(n − 1)] + T (1) + αn (Note: I have written T (n − 1) = T (1) + T (n − 2) + α(n − 1) by just substituting n − 1 instead of n. Note the implicit assumption that the pivot that was chosen divided the original...

A linked list allows data to be input or removed easily because each of the data items in the list is connected to its neighbor by a pointer that can be quickly and easily modified to accommodate new or removed items (CTU M.U.S.E. 2014). The Phase 1 portion of this document will be demonstrating the implementation of Stacks and Queues. Phase 2 Hash tables can be viewed as an array of lists and are used to speed up a search for data by creating a situation that does not require the search to start at the beginning and go through every item. The identifying value is the key and the associated record is the data, thus a hash table is a collection of (key, value) pairs. Phase 3 In order to efficiently use a database, the data must be stored in some sort of order. There are a number of different sorting algorithms; a programmer would choose which one to use depending on the amount and type of data being sorted. Insertion sort, Bubble sort, and Selection sort are described with examples. Phase 4 A binary tree, is a node-based data structure where each node has a comparable key (and...

...solving the sorting problem? Reasonable people may disagree on the answer. Selection Sort or Bubble Sort Brute-Force Sorting Algorithm Selection Sort : Scan the array to find its smallest element and swap it with the first element. Then, starting with the second element, scan the elements to the right of it to find the smallest among them and swap it with the second elements. Generally, on pass i (0 i n-2), find the smallest element in A[i..n-1] and swap it with A[i]: A[0] . . . A[i-1] | A[i], . . . , A[min], . . ., A[n-1] in their final positions Example: 7 3 2 5 Selection Sort : Example 1 ) |89 45 68 90 29 34 17 2 ) 17 | 45 68 90 29 34 89 3 ) 17 29 | 68 90 45 34 89 4 ) 17 29 34 | 90 45 68 89 5 ) 17 29 34 45 | 90 68 89 6 ) 17 29 34 45 68 | 90 89 7 ) 17 29 34 45 68 89 | 90 Analysis of Selection Sort Time efficiency: Space efficiency: Stability: Θ(n^2) Θ(1), so in place yes Bubble Sort Compare adjacent elements of the list and exchange them if they are out of order.
