Every single search algorithm consists of: The current state of the problem Possible actions that can be done in order to change that state The ability to recognize the final state - our goal When it comes to Artificial Intelligence, there are two types of search algorithms: Uninformed search algorithms...

Calculating a factorial of a number is a straightforward task. A factorial of a number is the product of that number (positive integer) and all positive integers less than that number. In other words - multiplying a number by all of the whole numbers from that number to 1. 0!...

Borůvka's Algorithm is a greedy algorithm published by Otakar Borůvka, a Czech mathematician best known for his work in graph theory. Its most famous application helps us find the minimum spanning tree in a graph. A thing worth noting about this algorithm is that it's the oldest minimum spanning tree...
Finding the right data we need is an age-old problem before computers. As developers, we create many search algorithms to retrieve data efficiently. Search algorithms can be divided into two broad categories: sequential and interval searches. Sequential searches check each element in a data structure. Interval searches check various points...

Searching, in the context of Computer Science, is the process of locating a particular element in the given list/array. If we pay close attention, we can find search algorithms everywhere. Consider the process of logging into a website. Entered email and password are searched against the existing key-value pairs...

Searching is one of the most commonly performed tasks in the domain of Computer Science. Many algorithms and data structures exist to make searching more efficient. In this article, we'll look at the idea behind Binary Search and how to implement it in JavaScript. Binary Search is a very simple,...
Sorting refers to arranging items of a list in a specific order (numerical or alphabetical). Sorting is generally used in tandem with searching. It is generally easier to search for an element (called the key) in a given list if the list is sorted, both visually and algorithmically. There are...
In this tutorial, we'll be diving into the theory and implementation of Bucket Sort in Python. Bucket Sort is a comparison-type algorithm which assigns elements of a list we want to sort in Buckets, or Bins. The contents of these buckets are then sorted, typically with another algorithm. After sorting,...

Binary Search is an efficient search algorithm that works on sorted arrays. It's often used as one of the first examples of algorithms that run in logarithmic time (O(logn)) because of its intuitive behavior and is a fundamental algorithm in computer science. In this article, we'll be diving into...
