Quick Sort 

Quicksort is a fascinating sorting algorithm.

·        It belongs to the class of divide and conquer algorithms.

·        It sorts in place, meaning it would not require any extra memory space to complete the sorting, unlike mergesort which would need space equal to the size of array you want to get sorted.



1. Quick Sort Partition Algorithm:

quickSort(arr, beg, end)

if (beg < end)

pivotIndex = partition(arr,beg, end)

quickSort(arr, beg, pivotIndex)

quickSort(arr, pivotIndex + 1, end)

partition(arr, beg, end)

set end as pivotIndex

pIndex = beg - 1

for i = beg to end-1

if arr[i] < pivot

swap arr[i] and arr[pIndex]

pIndex++

swap pivot and arr[pIndex+1]

return pIndex + 1

2. Example:

            QuickSort.java

 

 package runnerdev;

 

import java.util.Arrays;

import java.util.List;

 

public class QuickSort {

     public <T extends Comparable<T>> T[] sort(T[] array) {

                doSort(array, pivot, right);

           }

     }
