As a backend web developer, understanding algorithms can greatly enhance your ability to design efficient systems, optimize code, and solve complex problems. Here's a list of must-know algorithms for backend web development:




  1. Sorting Algorithms:




    • Quicksort: Efficient for large datasets, commonly used in practice.


    • Merge Sort: Stable sorting algorithm with guaranteed O(n log n) performance.


    • Heap Sort: Useful for sorting in-place with O(n log n) worst-case time complexity.


    • Radix Sort: Efficient for sorting integers and strings …
