Sorting Algorithm
This is a sorting algorithm. It may be applied to a set of data in order to sort it.

In this task, the goal is to sort an array (or list) of elements using the Quicksort algorithm. The elements must have a strict weak order and the index of the array can be of any discrete type. For languages where this is not possible, sort an array of integers. The algorithm goes like this (from the wiki):
function quicksort(array) var list lessOrEqual, greater if length(array) ≤ 1 return array select a pivot value pivot from array for each x in array if x ≤ pivot then add x to lessOrEqual if x > pivot then add x to greater return concatenate(quicksort(lessOrEqual), quicksort(greater))
The "pivot" separates the dataset into two groups: those that are less than or equal to the value at the pivot and those that are greater than the pivot. The Quicksort's worst case time is O(n^2) for a completely sorted set, but otherwise it is O(n * log n). Its average time is slightly faster than that of the merge sort in most cases, even though they are both O(n * log n) sorts.
Ada
This example is implemented as a generic procedure. The procedure specification is:
----------------------------------------------------------------------- -- Generic Quicksort procedure ----------------------------------------------------------------------- generic type Element_Type is private; type Index_Type is (<>); type Element_Array is array(Index_Type range <>) of Element_Type; with function "<" (Left, Right : Element_Type) return Boolean is <>; with function ">" (Left, Right : Element_Type) return Boolean is <>; procedure Sort(Item : in out Element_Array);
The procedure body deals with any discrete index type, either an integer type or an enumerated type.
----------------------------------------------------------------------- -- Generic Quicksort procedure ----------------------------------------------------------------------- procedure Sort (Item : in out Element_Array) is procedure Swap(Left, Right : in out Element_Type) is Temp : Element_Type := Left; begin Left := Right; Right := Temp; end Swap; Pivot_Index : Index_Type; Pivot_Value : Element_Type; Right : Index_Type := Item'Last; Left : Index_Type := Item'First; begin if Item'Length > 1 then Pivot_Index := Index_Type'Val((Index_Type'Pos(Item'Last) + 1 + Index_Type'Pos(Item'First)) / 2); Pivot_Value := Item(Pivot_Index); loop Left := Item'First; Right := Item'Last; while Left < Item'Last and then Item(Left) < Pivot_Value loop Left := Index_Type'Succ(Left); end loop; while Right > Item'First and then Item(Right) > Pivot_Value loop Right := Index_Type'Pred(Right); end loop; exit when Left >= Right; Swap(Item(Left), Item(Right)); if Left < Item'Last and Right > Item'First then Left := Index_Type'Succ(Left); Right := Index_Type'Pred(Right); end if; end loop; if Right > Item'First then Sort(Item(Item'First..Right)); end if; if Left < Item'Last then Sort(Item(Left..Item'Last)); end if; end if; end Sort;
An example of how this procedure may be used is:
with Sort; with Ada.Text_Io; with Ada.Float_Text_IO; use Ada.Float_Text_IO; procedure Sort_Test is type Days is (Mon, Tue, Wed, Thu, Fri, Sat, Sun); type Sales is array(Days range <>) of Float; procedure Sort_Days is new Sort(Float, Days, Sales); procedure Print(Item : Sales) is begin for I in Item'range loop Put(Item => Item(I), Fore => 5, Aft => 2, Exp => 0); end loop; end Print; Weekly_Sales : Sales := (Mon => 300.0, Tue => 700.0, Wed => 800.0, Thu => 500.0, Fri => 200.0, Sat => 100.0, Sun => 900.0); begin Print(Weekly_Sales); Ada.Text_Io.New_Line(2); Sort_Days(Weekly_Sales); Print(Weekly_Sales); end Sort_Test;
C
void quick(int *left, int *right) { if (right > left) { int pivot = left[(right-left)/2]; int *r = right, *l = left; do { while (*l < pivot) l++; while (*r > pivot) r--; if (l <= r) { int t = *l; *l++ = *r; *r-- = t; } } while (l <= r); quick(left, r); quick(l, right); } } void sort(int *array, int length) { quick(array, array+length-1); }
D
An implementation much similar to the C one is possible too, this is slower and simpler, derived from the Python one. This is a function template:
import std.stdio; T[] quickSort(T)(T[] items) { T[] less, more; if (items.length <= 1) return items; else { T pivot = items[0]; foreach(el; items[1 .. $]) if (el < pivot) less ~= el; else more ~= el; return quickSort(less) ~ pivot ~ quickSort(more); } } void main() { auto a1 = [4, 65, 2, -31, 0, 99, 2, 83, 782, 1]; writefln(quickSort(a1)); auto a2 = [4.0,65.0,2.0,-31.0,0.0,99.0,2.0,83.0,782.0,1.0]; writefln(quickSort(a2)); }

Haskell
The famous two-liner, reflecting the underlying algorithm directly:
qsort [] = [] qsort (x:xs) = qsort [y | y <- xs, y <= x] ++ [x] ++ qsort [y | y <- xs, y > x]
A more efficient version, doing only one comparison per element:
import Data.List qsort [] = [] qsort (x:xs) = qsort ys ++ x : qsort zs where (ys, zs) = partition (<= x) xs
IDL
IDL has a powerful optimized sort() built-in. The following is thus merely for demonstration.
function qs, arr if (count = n_elements(arr)) lt 2 then return,arr pivot = total(arr) / count ; use the average for want of a better choice return,[qs(arr[where(arr le pivot)]),qs(arr[where(arr gt pivot)])] end
Example:
IDL> print,qs([3,17,-5,12,99]) -5 3 12 17 99
J
sel=: 1 : 'x # [' quicksort=: 3 : 0 if. 1 >: #y do. y else. (quicksort y <sel e),(y =sel e),quicksort y >sel e=.y{~?#y end. )
To actually sort data in J, it is more convenient and more efficient to use /:~ .
Java
<java>public static <E extends Comparable<? super E>> LinkedList<E> quickSort(LinkedList<E> arr){ LinkedList<E> less= new LinkedList<E>(); LinkedList<E> pivotList= new LinkedList<E>(); LinkedList<E> more= new LinkedList<E>(); if(arr.size() <= 1) return arr; E pivot= arr.getFirst(); //This pivot can change to get faster results for(E i: arr){ if(i.compareTo(pivot)<0) less.add(i); else if(i.compareTo(pivot)>0) more.add(i); else pivotList.add(i); } less= quickSort(less); more= quickSort(more); less.addAll(pivotList); less.addAll(more); return less; }</java>
JavaScript
<javascript>function sort(a,less) {
function swap(i,j) { var t=a[i]; a[i]=a[j]; a[j]=t } function qs(l,r) { if (l<r) { var pivot = a[(l+r)>>1]; var l2=l, r2=r; do { while (less(a[l2], pivot) ++l2; while (less(pivot, a[r2]) --r2; if (l2 <= r2) swap(l2++, r2--); } while (l2 <= r2); qs(l, r2); qs(l2, r); } } qs(0, a.length-1); return a;
