Block sort, or block merge sort, is a sorting algorithm combining at least two merge operations with an insertion sort to arrive at O(n log n) (see Big...

In computer science, a sorting algorithm is an algorithm that puts elements of a list into an order. The most frequently used orders are numerical order...

science, merge sort (also commonly spelled as mergesort and as merge-sort) is an efficient, general-purpose, and comparison-based sorting algorithm. Most...

Cycle sort Merge-insertion sort Smoothsort Timsort Block sort There are fundamental limits on the performance of comparison sorts. A comparison sort must...

The Burrows–Wheeler transform is the reversible block-sort that is at the core of bzip2. The block is entirely self-contained, with input and output...

sort or type is a block with a typographic character etched on it, used—when lined up with others—to print text. In movable-type printing, the sort or...

External sorting is a class of sorting algorithms that can handle massive amounts of data. External sorting is required when the data being sorted do not...

1961. It is still a commonly used algorithm for sorting. Overall, it is slightly faster than merge sort and heapsort for randomized data, particularly...

flag sort is an efficient, in-place variant of radix sort that distributes items into buckets. Non-comparative sorting algorithms such as radix sort and...

Since the late 1990s, bzip2, a file compression utility based on a block-sorting algorithm, has gained some popularity as a gzip replacement. It produces...

The base, top, and mid-plate(s) are sealed together to form a "block" with some sort of path for water to flow through. The ends of the path have inlet/outlet...

The Chevrolet big-block engine is a series of large-displacement, naturally-aspirated, 90°, overhead valve, gasoline-powered, V8 engines that was developed...

In computer science, heapsort is an efficient, comparison-based sorting algorithm that reorganizes an input array into a heap (a data structure where...

In computer science, a nearly-sorted sequence, also known as roughly-sorted sequence and as k {\displaystyle k} -sorted sequence is a sequence which is...

Timsort is a hybrid, stable sorting algorithm, derived from merge sort and insertion sort, designed to perform well on many kinds of real-world data....

However, the blocks also come loose, for placement directly in-cistern (and therefore usable with squat toilets that lack the same sort of rim),[citation...
