Algorithms are a type of technology used in multiple fields of study that dictate or alter streams of information (in this case we will most be referring to computer science). The code/pseuocode presented on here will be written in Python.
Case Uses For Implementing Algorithms (Engineering and Computer Science) :
Common Computer Science Algorithms
Algorithms used in Computer Science are developed and implemented to alter the way data moves in network somehow ( the network representing the collection of data used to create a program/system )
The most common present:
Insertion Sort (sorting algorithm for small number of elements):
Python Code
---
def insertionSort(alist):
for index in range(1,len(alist)):
currentvalue = alist[index] position = index
while position>0 and alist[position-1]>currentvalue: alist[position]=alist[position-1] position = position-1
alist[position]=currentvalue
alist = [54,26,93,17,77,31,44,55,20] insertionSort(alist) print(alist)
