JortSort
JortSort is a sorting tool set that makes the user do the work and guarantees efficiency because you don't have to sort ever again.
It was originally presented by Jenn "Moneydollars" Schiffer at the
prestigious JSConf.
You are encouraged to solve this task according to the task description, using any language you may know.
Sorting Algorithm
This is a sorting algorithm. It may be applied to a set of data in order to sort it.
For comparing various sorts, see compare sorts.

Tree sort
JortSort is a function that takes a single array of comparable objects as its argument.
It then sorts the array in ascending order and compares the sorted array to the originally provided array.
If the arrays match (i.e. the original array was already sorted), the function returns true.
If the arrays do not match (i.e. the original array was not sorted), the function returns false.

BQN
BQN has a really simple way to represent JortSort:
JSort ← ≡⟜∧
JSort 3‿2‿1
0
Which means "Does the array match itself sorted?"
Another equivalent function is ⊢≡∧
.
C
This program tells if an array of integers numbers passed as input is sorted or not and gives the user some unpolite answers so, as asked by the specifications, "you don't have to sort ever again". As others did in this page, this example doesn't follow the request to sort the input array and then compare the sorted version to the original one to check if it was already sorted. It only checks if the input is sorted and behaves accordingly. I've tested this code only with gcc but should work with any C compiler.

int NumberOfDigits;
for(NumberOfDigits=0;x!=0;NumberOfDigits++){

}

J
Ironically, in J, implementing in the spirit of the original happens to also be the most concise and idiomatic way of expressing this algorithm:
Solution
jortsort=: -: /:~
More in line with the spirit of the task would be:
jortSort=: assert@(-: /:~)
Of course, ideally, assert would be replaced with something more assertive. Perhaps deleting all storage? But even better would be to send email to your boss and leadership explaining (at great length) exactly why they are all idiots. Do enough of this and you will never have to sort again...
Example Usage
jortsort 1 2 4 3

jortsort 'sux'
1
jortsort&> 1 2 4 3;14 6 8;1 3 8 19;'ac';'sux';'CVGH';'PQRST'
0 0 1 1 1 0 1
Using jortSort in place of jortsort would throw an error on all but the first of those examples. It would return an empty result for that first example. (We have no way of representing the consequences of the more inane proposals presented here.)

Optimized version of JortSort. Even less funny. Doesn't bother with sorting, but simply returns true. Very fast. Use only when you're absolutely sure that the input is already sorted. You may have to use an unoptimized version of JortSort to ascertain this.

The task wants us to sort, but we could implement this by just using cmp on the input array elements, which would be faster (especially with unsorted input).
Phix
type JortSort(sequence s) return s=sort(s) end type
Then any variable or constant delared as type JortSort raises an error if used incorrectly, eg
JortSort ok = {1,2,3} JortSort bad = {5,4,6}
- Output:
Note that while the above is fine under pwa/p2js and can be invoked explicitly, it does not automatically trigger the error.
C:\Program Files (x86)\Phix\test.exw:2 type check failure, bad is {5,4,6}
Amusingly the compiler itself uses a variant of jortsort, in that pttree.e declares a whole bunch of ternary tree node constants for all the language keywords and builtins such as
global constant T_while = 336 tt_stringF("while",T_while)
and if you change that to 338 and try to recompile the compiler, you'll immediately get:
while should be 336(not 338)
It does that because at the lowest level a cmp imm is at least twice as fast as a cmp [mem], and the only other way it could know these constants at compile-time would be to (re)build a 5000-node ternary tree, though I will concede that any sane person would have written a program to write an include file rather than hacking these things by hand.
There is a similar thing in pwa\src\p2js_keywords.e, though it automatically checks, prompts, and auto-rebuilds that for you.

Racket
#lang racket/base
(define (jort-sort l [<? <])
(equal? l (sort l <?)))
Racket's sort function is efficient in that it starts by checking the input, so the above could be made more efficient with a pointer equality test:
#lang racket/base
(define (jort-sort l [<? <])
(eq? l (sort l <?)))
And an explicit implementation that checks the order (note that Racket's sort expects a “smaller-than” comparator):
#lang racket/base
(define (jort-sort l [<? <])
(or (null? l)
(for/and ([x (in-list l)] [y (in-list (cdr l))])
(not (<? y x))))) ; same as (<= x y) but using only <?
Raku
(formerly Perl 6)
sub jort-sort { @_ eqv @_.sort }
Actually, there's a better internal sort that seems to work best for lists that are already completely sorted, but tends to fails for any other list. The name of this sort, [!after], is completely opaque, so we're pretty much forced to hide it inside a subroutine to prevent widespread panic.
sub jort-sort-more-better-sorta { [!after] @_ }
However, since Perl 6 has a really good inliner, there's really little point anyway in using the [!after] reduction operator directly, and jort-sort-more-better-sorta is really much more self-documenting, so please don't use the reduction operator if you can. For example:
- Output:
$ perl6 > [!after] <a b c> # DON'T do it this way True > [!after] 1,3,2 # DON'T do it this way either False
Please do your part to uphold and/or downhold our community standards.
REXX
REXX has no built-in sort, so an exchange sort is included here.
The array elements (items) may be any form of number that REXX supports, and/or they can be alphabetic characters.

/*REXX program verifies that an array is sorted using a jortSort algorithm. */

if jortSort($) then say 'The array is sorted.'
else say "The array isn't sorted."
exit /*stick a fork in it, we're all done. */

call eSort /*sort with exchange sort.*/
do k=1 for @.0
if !.k\==@.k then return 0 /*the array isn't sorted. */
end /*k*/
return 1 /*the array is sorted. */
output when using the default input: 1 2 4 3
array items= 1 2 4 3 The array is not sorted.
output when using the input: 0 -0 +0 0.0e-9 1 01 001 +1 1.0 1e8

output when using the input: cat dog eye fox gnu hog pig wombat something
array items= cat dog eye fox gnu hog pig wombat something The array is not sorted.
using comparisons
In the http://jort.technology/ webpage, the jortSort is defined as:
jortSort checks if your inputs are sorted.
Nothing is mentioned how it does this, and it certainly doesn't say that it sorts the input to verify if it's in order.
/*REXX program verifies that an array is sorted using a jortSort algorithm. */
parse arg $ /*obtain the list of numbers from C.L. */
if $='' then $=1 2 4 3 /*Not specified? Then use the default.*/
say 'array items=' space($) /*display the list to the terminal. */
if jortSort($) then say 'The array is sorted.'
else say "The array isn't sorted."
exit /*stick a fork in it, we're all done. */
/*──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────*/
jortSort: parse arg x
p=word(x,1)
do j=2 to words(x); _=word(x,j)
if _<p then return 0 /*array isn't sorted.*/
p=_
end /*j*/
return 1 /*array is sorted.*/
output is the same as the 1st REXX version.

SSEM
This program expects to find a zero-terminated array of positive integers in sequential storage addresses beginning at address 27. If the array is correctly sorted into ascending order, the machine will halt with all accumulator bits clear; if not, it will halt with all accumulator bits set.
Like one or two of the other solutions, the SSEM implementation does not first sort the array and then test the sorted version for equality with the original (something that would probably require more storage space than we have at our disposal): it simply reads through the array in order, checking that each element is not less than the previous one. This difference should be considered an implementation detail.
There are a couple of limitations that make the program less useful than it would otherwise be. Firstly, it is essentially a single-shot application: if you want to test a second array, you will need to manually reset storage address 0 to 16411 and storage address 26 to 0. Secondly, the SSEM's modest storage capacity means that the largest array you can sort (or not sort) using this program consists of (the terminating zero, and) four integers. Subject to those provisos, however, the program should be found to meet the specification satisfactorily.
