Sorting algorithms/Cycle sort
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.

From the the Wikipedia entry on cycle sorting:
- Cycle sort is an in-place, unstable sorting algorithm, a comparison sort that is theoretically optimal in terms of the total number of writes to the original array, unlike any other in-place sorting algorithm.
- It is based on the idea that the permutation to be sorted can be factored into cycles, which can individually be rotated to give a sorted result.
- Unlike nearly every other sort, items are never written elsewhere in the array simply to push them out of the way of the action.
- Each value is either written zero times, if it's already in its correct position, or written one time to its correct position.
- This matches the minimal number of overwrites required for a completed in-place sort.
- Minimizing the number of writes is useful when making writes to some huge data set is very expensive, such as with EEPROMs like Flash memory where each write reduces the lifespan of the memory.

J
J's sort is natively a single write sort, but it assigns the whole array at once. It would be trivial do the writes one at a time, and to avoid updating values which are not changed:
noncyc=:3 :0
writes=. 0
for_item. /:~y do.
if. item ~: item_index{y do.
writes=. writes+1
y=.item item_index} y
end.
end.
smoutput (":writes),' writes'
y
)
- Example use:
noncyc 9 8 15 17 4 0 1 2 17 9 3 12 11 12 19 15 3 9 16 9
17 writes
0 1 2 3 3 4 8 9 9 9 9 11 12 12 15 15 16 17 17 19
Meanwhile, if we just wanted the "value at a time swapping" mechanism, an idiomatic approach might look something like this:
cyc0=:3 :0
c=. (#~ 1 < #@>)C./:/: y
writes=. 0
for_box. c do.
inds=. >box
v=. ({:inds) { y
for_ind. inds do.
writes=. writes+1
t=. ind{ y
y=. v ind} y
v=. t
end.
end.
smoutput (":writes),' writes'
y
)
- Example use:
cyc0 9 8 15 17 4 0 1 2 17 9 3 12 11 12 19 15 3 9 16 9
18 writes
0 1 2 3 3 4 8 9 9 9 9 11 12 12 15 15 16 17 17 19
This gives us an extra write, because we're using a generic cycle abstraction.
Also that's still a bit different from the wikipedia algorithm. We might model the wikipedia algorithm like this:
cyc1=:3 :0
writes=. 0
for_index. i.(#y)-1 do.
item=. index{y
adj=. item+/ .>(1+index)}.y
if. 0<adj do.
pos=. index+adj
while. item=pos{y do. pos=.pos+1 end.
writes=. writes+1
t=. pos{y
y=. item pos} y
item=. t
while. pos ~: index do.
pos=. index+item+/ .>(1+index)}.y
while. item=pos{y do. pos=.pos+1 end.
writes=. writes+1
t=. pos{y
y=. item pos} y
item=. t
end.
end.
end.
smoutput (":writes),' writes'
y
)
- Example use:
cyc1 9 8 15 17 4 0 1 2 17 9 3 12 11 12 19 15 3 9 16 9
17 writes
0 1 2 3 3 4 8 9 9 9 9 11 12 12 15 15 16 17 17 19
Note that we've saved a write in this case, by following the wikipedia algorithm.

Note (for the above output). This REXX program was executed on an ASCII machine.
On an ASCII machine, the order of sorting is numbers, uppercase letters, lowercase letters.
On an EBCDIC machine, the order of sorting is lowercase letters, uppercase letters, numbers.
Other (special) characters may also be in a different order.
