Understand the principles of efficient algorithms for dealing with large scale data sets and be able to select appropriate algorithms for specific problems. Understand and be able to apply the main ...

Starting at the beginning of the data set, each item of data is examined until a match is made. Once the item is found, the search ends. Suppose we were to search for the value 2. The search would ...

In this module the student will learn the very basics of algorithms through three examples: insertion sort (sort an array in ascending/descending order); binary search: search whether an element is ...
