Lecture 55 :- Searching and Sorting Class - I

In the Searching and Sorting Class - I, we'll cover the fundamentals of searching and sorting algorithms. These are essential techniques used to efficiently organize and retrieve data from arrays and other data structures. We'll discuss various searching algorithms to find elements in an array and sorting algorithms to arrange elements in ascending or descending order. Let's start with an overview of the topics we'll cover:

Introduction to Searching Algorithms:

• Linear Search
• Binary Search (for sorted arrays)
• Time and Space Complexity Analysis

Introduction to Sorting Algorithms:

• Bubble Sort
• Selection Sort
• Insertion Sort
• Time and Space Complexity Analysis

Merge Sort:

• Divide and Conquer Technique
• Recursive Algorithm
• Time and Space Complexity Analysis

Quick Sort:

• Divide and Conquer Technique
• Recursive Algorithm
• Time and Space Complexity Analysis

Overview of Other Sorting Algorithms:

• Heap Sort
• Radix Sort
• Counting Sort

Best Practices and Choosing the Right Algorithm:

• Choosing the appropriate sorting algorithm based on data size and type.

Throughout the class, we'll explain the concepts, provide examples, and analyze the time and space complexity of each algorithm. We'll also discuss the advantages and disadvantages of different algorithms to help you make informed decisions when implementing them in real-world scenarios.
