Mergesort is a beautiful algorithm. I make no secret of it being my favorite sorting algorithm (everybody has one of those, right?) and so I like to spend time playing around with it, thinking of different ways of implementing the concept. In this post
I see this question get raised on various forums and message boards all the time: "How do you reverse a Linked List?". I'm sure it's a leetcode question, but I'm too lazy to confirm. It's one of those questions that (nowadays) lacks real world applicab
As I've mentioned in previous posts I am keenly interested in methods of generating visual representations of data structures, and data movement as algorithms progress. I recently revisited the Idea of generating images of various linked data
S-Expressions are an interesting notation for representing expressions. Taking the form of nested lists prefixed with an operator, they are most recognizable as the syntax of the various Lisp programming languages. Their somewhat alien appearance, and
Like many other software engineers out there, I love XKCD so whenever Randall publishes a comic with something computationally interesting I like to take a stab at it. Friday's comic
