001100 Sorting Algorithms

In this article, I outline the different types of Algorithms. I then address the Sorting Algorithms.

We can classify algorithms in different ways. Let us say that algorithms can be listed in Classification A as follows:

1. Constant Algorithm

2. Logarithmic Algorithm

3. Linear Algorithm

4. Quadratic Algorithm

5. Exponential Algorithm

6. Log-Linear Algorithm

Algorithms can be listed in Classification B as follows:

1. Sorting Algorithm

2. Searching Algorithm

Searching Algorithm can be further sub-classified as follows:

1. Linear Search (Brute Force Search)

2. Binary Search (Divide and Conquer Search)

Sorting Algorithms can be divided into 3 main categories:

1. Comparison Sorts

2. Non-Comparison Sorts

3. Impractical Sort

These 3 main categories of Sorting Algorithms can be further sub-classified as follows:
