Alewife of many native species of fish. In an effort to control them biologically, Pacific salmon were introduced, only partially successfully. As a marine fish, the alewife is a US National Marine Fisheries Service "Species of Concern". Alewives reach a maximum length of about 40 cm (16 in), but have an average length of about 25 cm (10 in). The front of the body is deep and larger than other fish found in the same waters, and its common name is said to come from comparison with a corpulent female tavernkeeper ("ale-wife"). In southwestern Nova Scotia, it is called a kiack
Gnome sort implementation in C#: Here is pseudocode for the gnome sort using a zero-based array: Given an unsorted array, a = [5, 3, 2, 4], the gnome sort takes the following steps during the while loop. The current position is highlighted in bold and indicated as a value of the variable codice_1. The gnome sort may be optimized by introducing a variable to store the position before traversing back toward the beginning of the list. With this optimization, the gnome sort would become a variant of the insertion sort. Here is pseudocode for an optimized gnome sort using a zero-based array:
