[QUOTE="YoungPhysicist, post: 6108345, member: 649826"] [URL='https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bead_sort']Bead sort[/URL] is a not practical sorting algorithm that suppose to have a time complexity of ##O(\sqrt{n})##in the real world. I thought it would be great if a device that can take numbers from the computer,then turn it into analog stuff that the device can read,drop the beads,and return it to the computer as digital signals.Can such thing being constructed? Edit:For turning signal back to digital,I thought above using a series of photodiodes and lasers to read the position of the beads,but I still got no clue of how to place them in the rod. [/QUOTE]
