The Dutch flag problem algorithm can be used to partition a list of values into three groups based on a partitioning element, with values less than, equal to, or greater than the partitioning element. It is commonly used to solve problems involving sorting or grouping data into categories based on a threshold. Applications include:
- Sorting numbers or objects into bins based on a value (e.g. sorting products by price)
- Grouping test scores into letter grades
- Separating items on an assembly line based on attributes (e.g. sorting parts by size)
