Algorithm

In the cheese cave, moving around is not always easy. Some paths are straight, while others seem to twist endlessly.

But there are those who know the way: they know what to do at each crossing, which stones to avoid, and when to follow the light.

That is what an algorithm is: a clear series of steps that, no matter how complex the labyrinth, will always lead you to where you want to go.

Some algorithms described in Cheese Bytes are:

• Adaptive Sorting Algorithms
• Brian Kernighan's Algorithm
• Gödel's Prime Number Encoding
• Majority Vote Algorithm
• Reservoir Sampling
• Mulberry32
