In [[computer science]], '''''k''-way merge algorithms''' or multiway merges are a specific type of [[Merge algorithm|sequence merge algorithms]] that specialize in taking in multiple sorted lists and merging them into a single sorted list. These merge algorithms generally refer to merge algorithms that take in a number of sorted lists greater than two. 2-way merges are also referred to as binary merges.
