Internal sorting

it means we are arranging the number within the array only which is in computer primary memory.

External sorting

it is the sorting of numbers from the external file by reading it from secondary memory.

What is difference between internal and external data structure?

Internal SortingExternal sortingIn internal sorting all the data to sort is stored in memory at all times while sorting is in progress.In external sorting data is stored outside memory (like on disk) and only loaded into memory in small chunks.The internal sorting methods are applied to small collection of data. The External sorting methods are applied only when the number of data elements to be sorted is too large. internal sorting takes input only which can be fit into its memory...i.e. it takes small inputexternal sorting can take as much as large input…Internal sort is more flexible as we can alter or update data before and after performing internal sort whereas the same doesn't hold true for external sort.internal sorting is independent of time to read/write a recordexternal ids dependent on the same

What is the difference between sorting and searching in a database?

Searching allows you to find data that meets specific criteria. Sorting allows you to organize that data, based upon the rules you choose (most common is alphabetical).


Is merge sort external sorting?

Can be. (Meaning: you can merge sorted files without loading them entirely into the main memory.)


Which sorting technique is the best and why?

The best sorting technique depends heavily on the number and type of elements you are sorting, whether or not the list is partially sorted, if it can be sorted completely in memory or requires external devices, and so forth. There is no best sorting technique; it depends on the sort requirements at the time.


What is the difference between searching and sorting in design analysis algorithm?

When you're searching for something you are simply examining each entity, comparing them with another entity in order to locate a match. When you're sorting entities, you are re-arranging the order of those entities. In both cases you will perform a comparison between two entities at a time, the only real difference is that you do not re-arrange the entities when searching.


What are the key steps involved in implementing the external merge sort algorithm for sorting large datasets stored on external storage devices?

The key steps in implementing the external merge sort algorithm for sorting large datasets on external storage devices are: Divide the dataset into smaller chunks that can fit into memory. Sort each chunk internally using a sorting algorithm. Merge the sorted chunks together using a merge process that involves reading and writing data to and from the external storage device. Repeat the merging process until all chunks are merged into a single sorted dataset.
