Sorting algorithms are a common exercise for new programmers, and for good reason: they introduce many programming fundamentals at once, including loops and conditionals, arrays and lists, comparisons ...

The term “algorithmic collusion” can refer to a number of distinct but overlapping ways in which pricing algorithms allow competitors to undermine price competition: autonomous algorithmic collusion, ...

In an effort to directly address the potential dangers of social media, Senators Mark Kelly and John Curtis have introduced what's being branded as the Algorithm Accountability Act. As reported by ...

As the world races to build artificial superintelligence, one maverick bioengineer is testing how much unprogrammed intelligence may already be lurking in our simplest algorithms to determine whether ...

What would you like to Propose? I would like to propose adding a new sorting algorithm — Tournament Sort — in the sorts package. Tournament Sort is a comparison-based sorting algorithm that simulates ...

Children as young as 4 years old are capable of finding efficient solutions to complex problems, such as independently inventing sorting algorithms developed by computer scientists. The scientists ...

A central question to TikTok's potential shutdown saga has been whether the popular social video platform would keep its algorithm — the secret sauce that powers its addictive video feed — after it's ...

There is a new sorting algorithm a deterministic O(m log2/3 n)-time algorithm for single-source shortest paths (SSSP) on directed graphs with real non-negative edge weights in the comparison-addition ...
