introduced by J. W. J. Williams in 1964 as a data structure for implementing heapsort. A binary heap is defined as a binary tree with two additional constraints:...

using an O ( n log ⁡ ( n ) ) {\displaystyle O(n\log(n))} sort such as heapsort or mergesort to sort all n points, a popular practice is to sort a fixed...

comparison-based sorting algorithm. A variant of heapsort, it was invented and published by Edsger Dijkstra in 1981. Like heapsort, smoothsort is an in-place algorithm...
