  1. Intro to Sorting • Sorting • "Ideal" Computer Science Topic • Theory and Practice meet • Efficient Sorting Saves Money • First look at some simple (quick and dirty?) algorithms • Selection Sort • Find smallest; swap with element [0] • Consider rest of list [1], [2], ...; find smallest,swap with element [1] • Continue process until you get to end

  2. Selection Sorting Example • N items in an array named Data [ 2 | 4 | 7 | 3 | 1 | 8 | 5 ] • Find smallest of elements 1 thru N of Data • Interchange this with 1st element of array Data [ 1 | 4 | 7 | 3 | 2 | 8 | 5 ] • Find smallest of elements 2 thru N of Data • Interchange this with 2nd element of array Data [ 1 | 2 | 7 | 3 | 4 | 8 | 5 ] • ... • Find smallest of elements K thru N of Data • Interchange this with Kth element of array Data [ 1 | 2 | 3 | 7 | 4 | 8 | 5 ] [ 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 7 | 8 | 5 ] [ 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 8 | 7 ] • Done when K = N [ 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 7 | 8 ]

  3. Selecton Sort Code public int locMin(int[] nums, int start){ int loc = start; for (int k = start + 1; k < nums.length; k++){ if (nums[k] < nums[loc]) loc = k; } return loc; } public void SelectSort(int[]nums){ for (int k = 0; k < nums.length; k++) { int minloc = locMin(nums, k); int temp = nums[k]; nums[k] = nums[minloc]; nums[minloc] = temp; } }

  4. Selection Sorting • Think about Selection Sort • Loop Invariant • What can we say about our partially sorted list that is true each time around? • Complexity • What is the big Oh? • Develop relationship for Selection Sort

  5. More Sorting • Other Simple Sorts • Simple means O(N2) • Bubble Sort? (XXX) • Worst of the O(N2) • Insertion Sort • Develop Algorithm • (method often used when updating a sorted list, one item at a time) • More complicated to program than selection sort • But, has some very nice properties

  6. [ 5| 4 | 6 | 9 | 3 | 8 | 1 ] 4 [ 5| 4 | 6 | 9 | 3 | 8 | 1 ] 4 [ 5| 5 | 6 | 9 | 3 | 8 | 1 ] 4 [ 4| 5 | 6 | 9 | 3 | 8 | 1 ] [ 4| 5 | 6 | 9 | 3 | 8 | 1 ] 6 [ 4| 5 | 6 | 9 | 3 | 8 | 1 ] 6 [ 4| 5 | 6 | 9 | 3 | 8 | 1 ] [ 4| 5 | 6 | 9 | 3 | 8 | 1 ] 9 [ 4| 5 | 6 | 9 | 3 | 8 | 1 ] 9 [ 4| 5 | 6 | 9 | 3 | 8 | 1 ] [ 4| 5 | 6 | 9 | 3 | 8 | 1 ] 3 [ 4| 5 | 6 | 9 | 3 | 8 | 1 ] 3 [ 4| 5 | 6 | 9 | 9 | 8 | 1 ] 3 [ 4| 5 | 6 | 6 | 9 | 8 | 1 ] 3 [ 4| 5 | 5 | 6 | 9 | 8 | 1 ] 3 [ 4| 4 | 5 | 6 | 9 | 8 | 1 ] 3 [ 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 9 | 8 | 1 ] [ 3| 4 | 5 | 6 | 9 | 8 | 1 ] 8 [ 3| 4 | 5 | 6 | 9 | 8 | 1 ] 8 [ 3| 4 | 5 | 6 | 9 | 9 | 1 ] 8 [ 3| 4 | 5 | 6 | 8 | 9 | 1 ] [ 3| 4 | 5 | 6 | 8 | 9 | 1 ] 1 [ 3| 4 | 5 | 6 | 8 | 9 | 1 ] 1 [ 3| 4 | 5 | 6 | 8 | 9 | 9 ] 1 [ 3| 4 | 5 | 6 | 8 | 8 | 9 ] 1 [ 3| 4 | 5 | 6 | 6 | 8 | 9 ] 1 [ 3| 4 | 5 | 5 | 6 | 8 | 9 ] 1 [ 3| 4 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 8 | 9 ] 1 [ 3| 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 8 | 9 ] 1 [ 1 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 8 | 9 ] Example

  7. Insertion Sort Code public void insertSort(int[]nums){ int j, k, temp; for (k = 1; k < nums.length; k++) { temp = nums[k]; for (j = k; j > 0; j--){ // decrement! if (temp<nums[j-1]) nums[j] = nums[j-1]; else break; } nums[j] = temp; } }

  8. Insertion Sort • Loop Invariant? • Complexity? • For almost sorted? • Is stable! • What does that mean?
