What do you need so much sorting algorithms for?



  • There's a bunch of effective algorithms of sorting, and I remember, "Hoara, merger, Piramidal." Someone's stable, someone's gone. What are they so many for?



  • Why do you need so many different phone or machine models? Same reason. Someone needs a little higher, someone a little easier.

    The algorithms are the same story. Different people have come up with their algorithms for their specific tasks. Some algorithms are good for large volumes, others are for almost adorable data, third when there is a lot of memory, or when memory is implicated.
