The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. If you want to solve a tricky problem, it often helps to get organized. You might, for example, break the problem into pieces and tackle ...

In this activity, our students performed a Selection Sort Role Play to understand the sorting process in an easy and interesting way. Instead of just learning through code, they became the elements of ...

Efficient algorithms can enhance problem-solving in many cognitive domains but can be difficult to discover and use. For example, classical studies of seriation suggest that children struggle to apply ...

Children as young as 4 years old are capable of finding efficient solutions to complex problems, such as independently inventing sorting algorithms developed by computer scientists. The scientists ...

This is a comparison of domain-specific sort algorithms to modern general-purpose hybrid sort algorithms. Bias disclosure: the author of this document is the co-author of ipnsort and driftsort which ...

There is a new sorting algorithm a deterministic O(m log2/3 n)-time algorithm for single-source shortest paths (SSSP) on directed graphs with real non-negative edge weights in the comparison-addition ...
