Dutch flag

Red white blue

The Dutch flag is the national flag of the Netherlands, consisting of three horizontal stripes: red, white, and blue from top to bottom.

In computer science, the Dutch national flag problem is a sorting algorithm challenge—arranging elements into three groups, like the flag's three colors—named by Edsger Dijkstra, who was Dutch.
