Welcome to the second post in my series on sorting algorithms. This time we’re going to talk about a sort that most people haven’t heard a great deal about: the Cocktail Sort.
This algorithm was the next logical choice in the series because it is very similar to the Bubble Sort in the way that it [...]
This is the first of many posts covering the fascinating topic of sorting.
I chose the Bubble Sort algorithm as the first to cover because of its simplicity. This algorithm tends to be the first sorting algorithm that is taught to students, and hence is a rather apt starting point.
Let’s break it down.
It’s time to recap a topic that is, or should be, close to the heart of every developer. A topic that is often overlooked or glossed over, rarely fully understood and not often discussed. Yet this topic is hugely important.
That topic is Sorting.
For the first time ever, OJ’s rants has a guest blogger! Long term friend and highly-respected geek, RobG has put together an interesting piece on something that’s close to the hearts of most Geeks - Unit testing. This is his first post, and I hope it won’t be the last.
Without further ado, here’s Rob!
The code-base that I am currently working with consists of a large set of binaries that are all signed. The savvy .NET devs out there will know that any assembly that’s used/referenced by a signed assembly must also be signed.
This is an issue when dealing with third-party libraries that are not signed. Sometimes you’ll be [...]
It has taken me a bit longer than expected, but I’ve finally got the screencast up!
That’s right folks, my angelic voice is now online for you all to experience. 8 minutes of Unity Build glory!
There comes a time in every ASP.NET developer’s life when the need arises for information to be persisted into ViewState. For the sake of this post I’m not really interested in the reasons why. What I am interested in is how.
How do you interact with your ViewState?
I thought it was about time that I made you all aware of a site that’s worthy of attention. I don’t usually like to just send out a link and shut up, but I’ll make an exception this time.
There are stacks of link blogs out there, most of which suck. I have subscribed to so [...]
I’ve been thinking about building a web application or two for a while, but I haven’t yet found the time to invest. I don’t think this is going to change very soon either. I’m not the kind of person who usually likes to get stuck into something unless I know I’ve got a couple of [...]
As the weeks roll by I’m finding that I have less and less time to chase up anything geek-related. I’m sure I’m not alone Responsibilities and life take over and that time which you could invest is now invested in other things, such as children
I’m dedicating this post to all those things [...]
