In this course you will learn about sorting algorithms in C++. From beginner to expert. Every chapter contains a specific sorting algorithm. You will be familiar with comparisan based as well as non-comparison based sorting algorithms. The standard ones such as bubble sort, insertion sort, selection sort, merge sort and quicksort. Of course there are important non-comparison based algorithms such as counting sort and radix sort.
Section 1 – Sorting Basics
•why to learn about sorting algorithms
•what is stable sorting?
•what is adaptive sorting?
Section 2 – Bogo Sort
•what is bogo sort?
•O(1) in quantum computing
•Fisher-Yates shuffle algorithm
Section 3 – Bubble Sort
•what is bubble sort?
•how to use quadratic running time algorithms in real-life?
Section 4 – Selection Sort
•what is selection sort?
•how to use the idea of linear search?
Section 5 – Insertion Sort
•what is insertion sort?
•why divide and conquer approaches uses insertion sort as sub-procedure?
Section 6 – Shell Sort
•what is shell sort?
•how to solve the problem of insertion sort?
Section 7 – Non-Comparison Based Sorting
•what is hybrid algorithms?
•what are non-comparison based sorting approaches?
Section 8 – Counting Sort
•what is counting sort?
•how to achieve O(N) linear running time with sorting?
Section 9 – Radix Sort
•what is radix sort?
•what is the state of the art integer sorting approach?
So these are the topics we are going to consider on a one by one basis. Theory and implementation included in C++! After learning about the fundamental sorting approaches, you can take the next step into the field of algorithms and data structures. Let’s get started!
Discover intermediate to advanced C++, including C++ 11’s fantastic additions to the C++ standard.
