Task

Implement the Counting sort.   This is a way of sorting integers when the minimum and maximum value are known.


Pseudocode
function countingSort(array, min, max):
    count: array of (max - min + 1) elements
    initialize count with 0
    for each number in array do
        count[number - min] := count[number - min] + 1
    done
    z := 0
    for i from min to max do
        while ( count[i - min] > 0 ) do
            array[z] := i
            z := z+1
            count[i - min] := count[i - min] - 1
        done
    done

The min and max can be computed apart, or be known a priori.


Note:   we know that, given an array of integers,   its maximum and minimum values can be always found;   but if we imagine the worst case for an array that can hold up to 32 bit integers,   we see that in order to hold the counts,   an array of up to 232 elements may be needed.   I.E.:   we need to hold a count value up to 232-1,   which is a little over 4.2 Gbytes.   So the counting sort is more practical when the range is (very) limited,   and minimum and maximum values are known   a priori.     (However, as a counterexample,   the use of   sparse arrays   minimizes the impact of the memory usage,   as well as removing the need of having to know the minimum and maximum values   a priori.)

   [Int] result
   L(n) cnt
      result [+]= [L.index + min] * n
   R result

V data = [9, 7, 10, 2, 9, 7, 4, 3, 10, 2, 7, 10, 2, 1, 3, 8, 7, 3, 9, 5, 8, 5, 1, 6, 3, 7, 5, 4, 6, 9, 9, 6, 6, 10, 2, 4, 5, 2, 8, 2, 2, 5, 2, 9, 3, 3, 5, 7, 8, 4]
print(countingSort(data, min(data), max(data)) == sorted(data))

Common Lisp

Straightforward implementation of counting sort. By using map and map-into, counting sort can work efficiently on both lists and vectors. The closure given as the second argument to map-into returns the sorted elements of sequence. Because map-into will only call the function as many times as necessary to re-populate sequence, there is no need for bounds checking. counts is declared to have dynamic-extent and so a compiler might stack allocate it.

(defun counting-sort (sequence &optional (min (reduce #'min sequence))
                                         (max (reduce #'max sequence)))
  (let ((i 0)
        (counts (make-array (1+ (- max min)) :initial-element 0
                                             :element-type `(integer 0 ,(length sequence)))))
    (declare (dynamic-extent counts))
    (map nil (lambda (n) (incf (aref counts (- n min)))) sequence)
    (map-into sequence (lambda ()
                         (do () ((plusp (aref counts i)))
                           (incf i))
                         (decf (aref counts i))

Groovy

Solution:

def countingSort = { array ->
    def max = array.max()
    def min = array.min()
    // this list size allows use of Groovy's natural negative indexing
    def count = [0] * (max + 1 + [0, -min].max())
    array.each { count[it] ++ }
    (min..max).findAll{ count[it] }.collect{ [it]*count[it] }.flatten()
}

println countingSort([23,76,99,58,97,57,35,89,51,38,95,92,24,46,31,24,14,12,57,78,4])

We use lists for input and output rather than arrays, since lists are used more often in Haskell.

import Data.Array
 
countingSort :: (Ix n) => [n] -> n -> n -> [n]
countingSort l lo hi = concatMap (uncurry $ flip replicate) count
  where count = assocs . accumArray (+) 0 (lo, hi) . map (\i -> (i, 1)) $ l

Icon and Unicon

The following example is hopefully in the spirit of a counting sort using a hash table as a substituted for a sparse array. Simply translating the pseudo-code would be very un-Iconish (as opposed to Uniconish).

procedure main()                                         #: demonstrate various ways to sort a list and string 
   write("Sorting Demo using ",image(countingsort))                
   writes("  on list : ")
   writex(UL)
   displaysort(countingsort,copy(UL))           
end

procedure countingsort(X)                                #: return sorted list (integers only)
local T,lower,upper

   T := table(0)                                         # hash table as sparse array
   lower := upper := X[1]

   every x := !X do {
      if not ( integer(x) = x ) then runerr(x,101)       # must be integer
      lower >:= x                                        # minimum
      upper <:= x                                        # maximum
      T[x] +:= 1                                         # record x's and duplicates
      }

   every put(X := [],( 1 to T[i := lower to upper], i) ) # reconstitute with correct order and count
   return X
end

Note: This example relies on the supporting procedures 'display sort', and 'writex' from Bubble Sort.

Sample output:
Sorting Demo using procedure countingsort
  on list : [ 3 14 1 5 9 2 6 3 ]
    with op = &null:         [ 1 2 3 3 5 6 9 14 ]   (0 ms)

J

Generally, this task should be accomplished in J using /:~. Here we take an approach that's more comparable with the other examples on this page.
csort =: monad define
  min =. <./y
  cnt =. 0 $~ 1+(>./y)-min
  for_a. y do.
    cnt =. cnt >:@{`[`]}~ a-min
  end.
  cnt # min+i.#cnt
)

Alternative implementation:

csort=: (+/@(=/) # ]) >./ (] + 1 i.@+ -) <./


Example:

   ] a =. _3 + 20 ?@$ 10
_2 _2 6 _1 1 6 _1 4 4 1 4 4 5 _3 5 3 0 _1 3 4

   csort a
_3 _2 _2 _1 _1 _1 0 1 1 3 3 4 4 4 4 4 5 5 6 6

And note that this can be further simplified if the range is known in advance (which could easily be the case -- this sorting mechanism is practical when we have a small fixed range of values that we are sorting). Here, we do not need to inspect the data to find min and max values, since they are already known:

csrt=:2 :0
  (m+i.n-m) (+/@(=/)~ # [) ]
)

or

csrt=:2 :0
   (+/@(=/) # ])&(m+i.n-m)
)

Example:

   (_3 csrt 17) a
_3 _2 _2 _1 _1 _1 0 1 1 3 3 4 4 4 4 4 5 5 6 6

Java

Works with: Java version 1.5+
public static void countingSort(int[] array, int min, int max){
	int[] count= new int[max - min + 1];
	for(int number : array){
		count[number - min]++;
	}
	int z= 0;
	for(int i= min;i <= max;i++){
		while(count[i - min] > 0){
			array[z]= i;
			z++;
			count[i - min]--;
		}
	}
}

JavaScript

var countSort = function(arr, min, max) {
    var i, z = 0, count = [];
    
    for (i = min; i <= max; i++) {
        count[i] = 0;
    }
    
    for (i=0; i < arr.length; i++) {
        count[arr[i]]++;
    }
    
    for (i = min; i <= max; i++) {
        while (count[i]-- > 0) {
            arr[z++] = i;
        }
    }
    
}

Testing:

// Line breaks are in HTML

var i, ages = [];

for (i = 0; i < 100; i++) {
    ages.push(Math.floor(Math.random() * (141)));
}

countSort(ages, 0, 140);

for (i = 0; i < 100; i++) {
    document.write(ages[i] + "<br />");
}

jq

Works with: jq version 1.4

The task description points out the disadvantage of using an array to hold the counts, so in the following implementation, a JSON object is used instead. This ensures the space requirement is just O(length). In jq, this approach is both time and space efficient, except for the small cost of converting integers to strings, which is necessary because JSON keys must be strings.

def countingSort(min; max):
  . as $in
  | reduce range(0;length) as $i
      ( {};
        ($in[$i]|tostring) as $s | .[$s] += 1 # courtesy of the fact that in jq, (null+1) is 1
      )
  | . as $hash
  # now construct the answer:
  | reduce range(min; max+1) as $i
      ( [];
        ($i|tostring) as $s
        | if $hash[$s] == null then .
          else reduce range(0; $hash[$s]) as $j (.; . + [$i])
          end 
      );

Example:

 [1,2,1,4,0,10] | countingSort(0;10)
Output:
$ jq -M -c -n -f counting_sort.jq
[0,1,1,2,4,10]

Julia

Works with: Julia version 0.6

This is a translation of the pseudocode presented in the task description, accounting for the fact that Julia arrays start indexing at 1 rather than zero and taking care to return a result of the same type as the input. Note that cnt has the machine's standard integer type (typically Int64), which need not match that of the input.

function countsort(a::Vector{<:Integer})
    lo, hi = extrema(a)
    b   = zeros(a)
    cnt = zeros(eltype(a), hi - lo + 1)
    for i in a cnt[i-lo+1] += 1 end
    z = 1
    for i in lo:hi
        while cnt[i-lo+1] > 0
            b[z] = i
            z += 1
            cnt[i-lo+1] -= 1
        end
    end
    return b
end

OCaml

For arrays:

let counting_sort_array arr lo hi =
  let count = Array.make (hi-lo+1) 0 in
    Array.iter (fun i -> count.(i-lo) <- count.(i-lo) + 1) arr;
    Array.concat (Array.to_list (Array.mapi (fun i x -> Array.make x (lo+i)) count))

Octave

This implements the same algorithm but in a more compact way (using the same loop to count and to update the sorted vector). This implementation is elegant (and possible since the sort is not done "in place"), but not so efficient on machines that can't parallelize some operations (the vector arr is scanned for every value between minval and maxval)

function r = counting_sort(arr, minval, maxval)
  r = arr;
  z = 1;
  for i = minval:maxval
    cnt = sum(arr == i);
    while( cnt-- > 0 )
      r(z++) = i;
    endwhile
  endfor
endfunction

Testing:

ages = unidrnd(140, 100, 1);
sorted = counting_sort(ages, 0, 140);
disp(sorted);

Oz

Using arrays as in the original algorithm. The implementation is slightly simpler because arrays can start with an arbitrary index in Oz.

declare
  proc {CountingSort Arr Min Max}
     Count = {Array.new Min Max 0}
     Z = {NewCell {Array.low Arr}}
  in
     %% fill frequency array
     for J in {Array.low Arr}..{Array.high Arr} do
        Number = Arr.J
     in
        Count.Number := Count.Number + 1
     end
     %% recreate array from frequencies
     for I in Min..Max do
        for C in 1..Count.I do
  	 Arr.(@Z) := I
  	 Z := @Z + 1
        end
     end
  end

  A = {Tuple.toArray unit(3 1 4 1 5 9 2 6 5)}
in
  {CountingSort A 1 9}
  {Show {Array.toRecord unit A}}

Using lists for input and output and a dictionary as a sparse array:

declare
  fun {CountingSort Xs}
     Count = {Dictionary.new}
  in
     for X in Xs do
        Count.X := {CondSelect Count X 0} + 1
     end
     {Concat {Map {Dictionary.entries Count} Repeat}}
  end

  fun {Repeat Val#Count}
     if Count == 0 then nil
     else Val|{Repeat Val#Count-1}
     end
  end

  fun {Concat Xs}
     {FoldR Xs Append nil}
  end
in
  {Show {CountingSort [3 1 4 1 5 9 2 6 5]}}

Python

Follows the spirit of the counting sort but uses Pythons defaultdict(int) to initialize array accesses to zero, and list concatenation:

>>> from collections import defaultdict
>>> def countingSort(array, mn, mx):
	count = defaultdict(int)
	for i in array:
		count[i] += 1
	result = []
	for j in range(mn,mx+1):
		result += [j]* count[j]
	return result

>>> data = [9, 7, 10, 2, 9, 7, 4, 3, 10, 2, 7, 10, 2, 1, 3, 8, 7, 3, 9, 5, 8, 5, 1, 6, 3, 7, 5, 4, 6, 9, 9, 6, 6, 10, 2, 4, 5, 2, 8, 2, 2, 5, 2, 9, 3, 3, 5, 7, 8, 4]
>>> mini,maxi = 1,10
>>> countingSort(data, mini, maxi) == sorted(data)
True

Using a list:

Works with: Python version 2.6
def countingSort(a, min, max):
    cnt = [0] * (max - min + 1)
    for x in a:
        cnt[x - min] += 1
 
    return [x for x, n in enumerate(cnt, start=min)
              for i in xrange(n)]

It's better (i.e. slightly faster) to reverse the frequencies list before processing it, instead of the whole result

def countSort(input: List[Int], min: Int, max: Int): List[Int] =
  input.foldLeft(Array.fill(max - min + 1)(0)) { (arr, n) => 
    arr(n - min) += 1

VBScript

All my other sort demos just pass in the array, thus the findMax and findMin

Implementation
function findMax( a )
	dim num
	dim max
	max = 0
	for each num in a
		if num > max then max = num
	next
	findMax = max
end function

function findMin( a )
	dim num
	dim min
	min = 0
	for each num in a
		if num < min then min = num
	next
	findMin = min
end function

'the function returns the sorted array, but the fact is that VBScript passes the array by reference anyway
function countingSort( a )
	dim count()
	dim min, max
	min = findMin(a)
	max = findMax(a)
	redim count( max - min + 1 )
	dim i
	dim z
	for i = 0 to ubound( a )  
		count( a(i) - min ) = count( a( i ) - min ) + 1
	next
	z = 0
	for i = min to max
		while count( i - min) > 0
			a(z) = i
			z = z + 1
			count( i - min ) = count( i - min ) - 1
		wend
