Prior to beginning this discussion, review Chapter 9 in Data Structures and Algorithm Analysis (Links to an external site.) , Chapter 1 in Data Structures Essentials, and the Sorting, Searching and Algorithm Analysis (Links to an external site.) (2014) article.

Students: Be sure to download and save a PDF version of your textbook for future reference. It will be used in later courses within your program, including the final, capstone course. Zybooks limits online access to your course textbooks to a 12-month period. (Zybook Download Instructions download)

For your initial post, utilizing the University of Arizona Global Campus Library or outside credible sources (defined in the Scholarly, Peer Reviewed, and Other Credible Sources (Links to an external site.) table), describe the various types of sorting and searching algorithms and give an example of each other than the examples provided in the assigned readings. Apply algorithmic design and data structure techniques in developing structured programs by discussing time and space complexity in relation to whether using a sort algorithm is better than using a search algorithm. Does it really matter with the capabilities of computers today? Provide justification to support your answers. Include your references, formatted in APA as outlined by the UAGC Writing Center (Links to an external site.). Your initial post must be a minimum of 250 words.
