	Bead sort - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Bead sort is a natural sorting algorithm, developed by Joshua J. Arulanandham, Cristian S. Calude and Michael J. Dinneen in 2002, and published in The Bulletin of the European Association for Theoretical Computer Science.
		Both digital and analog hardware implementations of Bead sort can achieve a sorting time of O(n); however, the implementation of this algorithm tends to be significantly slower in software and can only be used to sort lists of positive integers.
		The Bead sort operation can be compared to the manner in which beads slide on parallel poles, such as on an abacus.

	Talk:Bead sort - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		It's equivalent to the well-known "bin sort" aka Pigeonhole_sort, and it's only order(N) if the number of items to be sorted exceeds the range of possible values.
		You could establish a mapping (eg, a hash function) into some smaller range, and as long as the mapping was rapid and easily reversible and collisions were infrequent, you'd stay close to the claimed efficiency.
		But the usefulness of the algorithm is still limited either to domains where suitable low-collision mappings can be found quickly or, as I've said before, to domains where the list to be sorted is large compared to the range of values.

		This old strand of trade beads, measuring about 28 inches, is a fine example of a strand of one individual bead comprising the whole strand.
		Three of the beads have substantial chunks missing from their ends; the rest of the beads are in very good to excellent condition.
		But as is common with this style of bead, they are very rough to the touch as different portions of the outer layer of the beads have worn away at different rates.

	Hill Tribes silver small beads
		The bead measures approximately 5.88mm (hole to hole) by 7.11mm in diameter and about a 1.5mm hole, which makes it technically a rondelle bead; it has a series of simple flower designs around the center.
		This interesting bead is more or less oval shaped, and has pinched folds of silver forming a star shape if viewed from the ends of the bead, and a kind of corrugated effect if viewed from the side.
		These beads average about 7.22-7.57x4 long by 4.4mm in diameter, and there's a bit more variation in the sizing and even the way the beads are styled, compared to the others in this group.

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: The Rosary
		This Oriental form of rosary is known in the Hellenic Greek Church as kombologion (chaplet), or komboschoinion (string of knots or beads), in the Russian Church as vervitza (string), chotki (chaplet), or liestovka (ladder), and in the Rumanian Church as matanie (reverence).
		At the beginning and at the end of each prayer said by the monk upon each knot or bead he makes the "great reverence" (he megale metanoia), bending down to the ground, so that the recitation of the rosary is often known as a metania.
		The Russian rosary is divided by the four large beads so as to represent the different parts of the canonical Office which the recitation of the rosary replaces, while the four large beads themselves represent the four Evangelists.

		The Bead Sort Algorithm manages to do its job in O(n) (or even in Big O of square root of n, depending on the chosen analysis).
		The algorithm represents the positive integers by a set of beads, like those used in an abacus.
		The paper also describes a number of hardware implementations which directly represent the beads and simulate their falling behavior in a highly parallelized manner.

		Purple with character, a subtle fl whatsis encircles the core, this sort of thing is what gives life and dimension to a bead, the sort of thing that sort of sorts things out.
		It is said that the white part of the bead represents the Italian Alps, whilst the red part represents the road through the Alps.
		Legend has it that when any 12 of these beads are lined up in the proper sequence, the "road" part, or the red part as it were, would reveal a map to the long lost treasure of IL BAGADONUTSA, the famous treasure hunter of days of yore.

		I have not seen these in person yet but it looks to me that the weld beads in most all of the cases have cracked roughly down the center of the bead and that the bead sort of bridges the joint with poor penetration into the base materials.
		The center of the weld bead is the last to solidify, so that is normally when center line, hot cracking, solidification cracking (it's called many things) occurs.
		The weld profile, depth, and single shallow beads (as in the photos) are usually not associated with fillet welds.

		So THAT'S what I designed into my bead — the fish in my Koi Pond beads have just scales (and A LOT of them!) no head or tail, but your mind sort of "fills in" the rest of the info, and you know right away that it's a fish without actually seeing a whole fish.
		I decorate my base bead with scrolls, flowers, etc., melt in ALMOST all the way, and THEN press the decorated bead while the bead is soft, but not super molten/drippy.

		The idea is to represent positive integers by a set of beads, like those used in an abacus.
		To sort a list of number, it is sufficient to represent this list of number in the abacus representation and then to iterate the basic exchange of a bead and an empty space.

		To roll out a bead with a metallic clay you have to be careful to fold the cut ends inside or else you'll have darker lines on the surface.
		Beads can be baked sitting directly on ordinary paper laid on a baking pan, though the round ones will roll around less if they've had holes already made in them (slightly flattened on each side).
		I hang the beads from this, and tie the whole frame to the ceiling fan on the patio (I live in the AZ desert, but any hook in the ceiling would probably work, if the rack has room to rotate gently.
