Sorting algorithms allow programmers to either rearrange data structures, ordering them by value, or to copy the items in order, into a second data structure.

If you ever need to sort character strings stored in SQL Server fields, check out this demonstration of how to write a common sorting algorithm using SQL Server TSQL code.

Introduction Standard algorithm cookbooks provide dozens of number-sorting algorithms [1]. Though the sorting algorithms are very simple from a mathematical point of view, they can be very time ...

Overall, AlphaDev’s new C++ sorting algorithms are 1.7 percent more efficient than the prior methods when sorting long sequences of numbers, and up to 70 percent faster for five-item sequences.

PhD student Timo Bingmann has created an amazing video showing sorting algorithms in action. And it's surprisingly awesome!
