    Insertion Sort Insertion sort belongs to the O(n2) sorting algorithms. Unlike many sorting algorithms with quadratic complexity‚ it is actually applied in practice for sorting small arrays of data. For instance‚ it is used to improve quicksort routine. Some sources notice‚ that people use same algorithm ordering items‚ for example‚ hand of cards. Algorithm Insertion sort algorithm somewhat resembles selection sort. Array is imaginary divided into two parts - sorted one and unsorted one. At the

    Analysis of Amplification of Alu insertion polymorphism by PCR Introduction Alu elements have been accumulated in human genome throught mankind evolution‚ reaching over 1 million copies in genome. They are short‚ and repetitive DNA fragments found in primates. Each Alu element is known to have 300 base pairs in length. DNA repeats contribute to partial gene deletion or duplications in many cases of hereditary diseases.Alu insertion polymorphisms consists of absence or presence of Alu elements

    structural variation types‚such as Insertions and deletions‚ which are genomic imbalances. There are also inversions and translocations.These structural variations are the cause of a vast range of genetic disorders. Insertions are the addition of a sequence of one or more nucleotides between two adjacent nucleotides. They range in size from small‚ one base pair to large‚ a section of a chromosome.When a section of a chromosome is entered into another chromosome insertions can occur due to unequal crossover

    Experiment Name:Insertion sort Algorithm Objective:To learn about Insertion sort algorithm‚know how it works and use it in real life. Application: Suppose there exists a function called Insert designed to insert a value into a sorted sequence at the beginning of an array. It operates by beginning at the end of the sequence and shifting each element one place to the right until a suitable position is found for the new element. The function has the side effect of overwriting the value stored immediately

    Nowadays‚ a Pitot tube would be of use as a speedometer on aeroplanes. It is also found useful in industries where velocity measurements are required‚ where an anemometer may not be the most efficient instrument to use. There are three types of pitot tubes: Pitot tubes‚ Static tubes‚ and Pitot-Static tubes. The simple pitot tube essentially consists of a tube bent at - usually - 90°‚ with an open end pointing directly towards the fluid flow. As the fluid flows in the tube‚ it becomes stagnant
