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 ...

Cryptography secures communication in banking, messaging, and blockchain. Good algorithms (AES, RSA, ECC, SHA-2/3, ChaCha20) are secure, efficient, and widely trusted. Bad algorithms (DES, MD5, SHA-1, ...

Large language models have made remarkable strides in natural language processing, yet they still encounter difficulties when addressing complex planning and reasoning tasks. Traditional methods often ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. Computer scientists often deal with abstract problems that are hard to comprehend, but an exciting new algorithm matters to anyone who ...

We then select the next smallest element in the array, which is 3. 3 is already in the correct position, so we don't need to swap it. We then select the next smallest element in the array, which is 4.

Add a description, image, and links to the selection-sort-algorithm topic page so that developers can more easily learn about it.

Abstract: The main idea of Optimized Selection Sort Algorithm (OSSA) is based on the already existing selection sort algorithm, with a difference that old selection sort; sorts one element either ...
