This camper was able to pass the tests but their algorithm didn't perform a swap of the smallest element and the first unsorted element. def selection_sort(items ...

Differential privacy (DP) stands as the gold standard for protecting user information in large-scale machine learning and data analytics. A critical task within DP is partition selection—the process ...

We then select the next smallest element in the array, which is 3. 3 is already in the correct position, so we don't need to swap it. We then select the next smallest element in the array, which is 4.

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. Computer scientists often deal with abstract problems that are hard to comprehend, but an exciting new algorithm matters to anyone who ...

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

An artificial intelligence (AI)-assisted hardware design platform enables engineers to find the right components for their design projects using machine learning and smart algorithms. It selects the ...

Abstract: The main idea of Optimized Selection Sort Algorithm (OSSA) is based on the already existing selection sort algorithm, with a difference that old selection sort; sorts one element either ...
