Algorithms Median of two sorted arrays In this article, we have presented 3 Algorithms to find the Median of two sorted arrays efficiently in logarithmic time. This involves a clever use of Binary Search algorithm.
Algorithms Intersection of two arrays We have explored several approaches to find Intersection of two arrays efficiently. This involve techniques like sorting, binary search, hash map and much more.
Algorithms K-th Smallest element in a row and column wise sorted matrix We have discussed how can we find the kth smallest element in a given n x n matrix, in which every row and column is sorted in non-decreasing order and covered 3 approaches: brute force, using min-heap and using Binary Search.
Algorithms Fractional Cascading in Binary search Fractional Cascading is an optimization over Binary Search to perform Binary Search on K sorted lists to improve the time complexity from O(K logN) to O(logN + K). In this article, fractional cascading in binary search will be covered.
Algorithms Binary Search in a Linked List You are given a sorted singly linked list and a key (element to be searched), find the key in the linked list using binary search algorithm. The challenge is to find the middle element as Linked List does not support random access.
Algorithms Distributing Candies equally In this problem, we need to candies from N boxes each of which has different number of candies across K friends. This problem can be solved using Binary Search.
linked list Search an element in a Linked List How to search a node? Why is searching in Linked List slower than arrays? Is binary search possible in Linked List? Implementations Complexity Reading time: 15 minutes | Coding time: 20 minutes Linked List
Search Algorithms Binary Search Algorithm Binary Search algorithm is an efficient comparison based search algorithm where the key idea is to reduce size of search space by half in every iteration by exploiting a restriction on the search space that it is in sorted order. When suitable, binary search is choose over other search algorithms
