Mar 2, 2022Part 10 — Data Structures and Algorithms in Plain English | Bubble SortWhen you hear the word bubble, what comes to mind? Literal bubbles? As in those containing air and gas? It’s logical to have that be what comes to mind but in the case of computer programming, the word bubble refers not to the noun itself but to the verb. This…Perfection Loveday3 min readPerfection Loveday3 min read
Feb 17, 2022Part 9 — Data Structures and Algorithms in Plain English | Sorting AlgorithmsHave you ever tried to arrange data in a specific order — ascending or descending? No need to think that long about it, you have…and if you happened to be a developer then you, most definitely, have also done it programmatically. This may have been a simple operation you performed…Sorting Algorithm2 min readSorting Algorithm2 min read
Jan 26, 2022Part 8 — Data Structures and Algorithms in Plain English | String Binary SearchHello there and welcome back from the long break session. In the last part, we talked about Recursive Binary Search where we discussed the very concepts of Binary Search we covered in part 5 along with the concepts of recursion in we covered in part 6.
