Crosscut saw into the wood. Many sawtooth patterns have four cutters; each cutter that cuts to the left of the blade is paired with another that cuts to the right of the blade. Adjacent to the cutters there is generally a raker. The void on either side of the raker is known as the gullet. A raker is what does the actual removal of the wood that is being cut. The raker follows the cutters, paring the bottom of the kerf like a chisel or plane. As the raker pares the bottom of the kerf, a strip of wood is lifted upward,
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:
