client/server network CORRECT ANSWERS A network that uses centrally administered
computers, known as servers, to enable resource sharing for and to facilitate
communication between the other computers on the network.
Bubble Sort CORRECT ANSWERS comparing pairs of adjacent elements, swapping
elements that are in the wrong order.
Quick Sort CORRECT ANSWERS A divide and conquer sort that continuously sub-
divides the list via a *pivot* index
Merge Sort CORRECT ANSWERS break down into sub lists until single element is left,
then merge
