K Sorted Array Sort

K Sorted Array Sort K sorted array sort handles a nearly sorted array where every element is at most ( k ) positions away from its final sorted position. This stronger assumption allows a heap based method faster than general sorting. You use it when the disorder is locally bounded. Problem Given an array ( A ) of length ( n ), where each element is at most ( k...

Min Heap K Sorted Sort

Min Heap K Sorted Sort Min heap k sorted sort is the canonical heap based method for sorting a k sorted array. It maintains a sliding window of size ( k + 1 ) in a min heap and repeatedly extracts the next smallest element. This is the standard optimal solution for k sorted input. Problem Given an array ( A ) where each element is at most ( k...
