Sort Algorithms
These algorithms are used to classify or sort a list of items in a way suitable to the user. They may have to be merged or quickly sorted into ascending or descending or based on certain criteria. The most important factor in sorting is how and when they have to be used as per the choice. Search Algorithms
Search algorithms are used by everyone in their day-to-day life. Even when you are searching for a song or a certain file in your computer you are executing a Binary algorithm. It is used to separate data that are required in sets. Then, there is the Depth/Breadth-First Search algorithm. Search engines use such algorithms to find your search by searching the keywords that you looking for. Hashing Hashing is the algorithm involved in finding a specific object or data set with the help of a keyword or location of the object you are looking for. It is a direct method for searching than other search algorithms. It is like finding your location via GPS or your exact address. Dynamic Programming It is a method of finding solutions to the complex methodology by breaking it down into its subcategories and solving them easily. It is kind of like predicting the results of a problem by memorizing the result of the previous problem. Exponentiation By Squaring It is the method of calculation of large positive integers of a number. They are used in modular arithmetic, powering of matrices, etc. String Matching and Parsing It is the method for implementing a certain keyword for a whole data type.
KMP Algorithm(String Matching)
The Knuth-Morris-Pratt algorithm is a method of matching a short pattern over a large code or string of patterns.
Regular Expression(String Parsing)
It is a method of parsing the information or dividing the information into various strings so that the information can be extracted individually by the user.

These are deterministic and probabilistic ways of doing so.
Sieve of Eratosthenes(Deterministic)
The method is implemented when the number is within a closed limit to find whether it is prime or not. The limiting factor is important as a certain amount of memory has to be reserved for this purpose.
For any number n, incremented up to the value of sqrt(n) (deterministic)
This method is utilized as the sieve method has to be limited as per as the memory or limit. This method can be used to test numbers over a wide range.
Fermat primality test and Miller-Rabin primality test (probabilistic)
These tests are based on the factor that if a number is a composite then it is a prime number. Miller-Rabin is complex as it has a deterministic variant.
Conclusion
The knowledge of all of these algorithms determines the efficiency and level of expertise of a programmer. These algorithms determine the baseline and benchmark on how well you perform a task.
