Method Index

o binarySearch(ComparisonObject[], ComparisonObject)
perform a binary search Creation date: (30/12/2001 5:11:37 PM)
o binarySearch(String[], String)
perform a binary search Creation date: (30/12/2001 5:11:37 PM)
o binarySearch(Vector, ComparisonObject)
perform a binary search if the element is not found the method returns -(1+low) low will always be at least 0, so this is okay low will also point to the element where to insert the new element for example, in the list (b,c,d) checking for aa yields low=0 high=-1 checking for bb yields low=1 high=0 checking for cc yields low=2 high=1 checking for dd yields low=3 high=2 therefore low shows where to insert (even when the list is empty) Creation date: (30/12/2001 5:11:37 PM)
o deltaInsertionSort(ComparisonObject[], int, int)
This is an insertion sort routine used in shell sort that shifts all the elements in a certain set that are bigger than the first element so that the first element can then be inserted on one side The set of elements is determined by the delta value, since each element is delta elements from its neighbour.
o deltaInsertionSort(String[], int, int)
This is an insertion sort routine used in shell sort that shifts all the elements in a certain set that are bigger than the first element so that the first element can then be inserted on one side The set of elements is determined by the delta value, since each element is delta elements from its neighbour.
o shellSort(ComparisonObject[])
Perform a shell sort A shell sort starts off with a delta of some sort and then performs an insertion sort on elements that are delta entries apart Creation date: (30/12/2001 4:19:01 PM)
o shellSort(String[])
Perform a shell sort A shell sort starts off with a delta of some sort and then performs an insertion sort on elements that are delta entries apart Creation date: (30/12/2001 4:19:01 PM)
