Sorting
Gordon College

Sorting• Consider a list
x1, x2, x3, … xn
• We seek to arrange the elements of the list in order– Ascending or descending
• Some O(n2) schemes– easy to understand and implement– inefficient for large data sets
3
Categories of Sorting Algorithms
1. Selection sort– Make passes through a list– On each pass reposition correctly
some element
Look for smallest in list and replace 1st element, now start the process over with the remainder of the list
4
Selection
Recursive Algorithm
If the list has only 1 element ANCHOR
stop – list is sorted
Else do the following:
a. Find the smallest element and place in front
b. Sort the rest of the list
5
Categories of Sorting Algorithms
2. Exchange sort– Systematically interchange pairs of elements
which are out of order– Bubble sort does this
Out of order, exchange In order, do not exchange
6
Bubble Sort Algorithm
1. Initialize numCompares to n - 12. While numCompares!= 0, do following
a. Set last = 1 // location of last element in a swap
b. For i = 1 to numPairsif xi > xi + 1
Swap xi and xi + 1 and set last = i
c. Set numCompares = last – 1End while

Categories of Sorting Algorithms
3. Insertion sort– Repeatedly insert a new element into an already
sorted list
– Note this works well with a linked list implementation
9
Example of Insertion Sort
• Given list to be sorted 67, 33, 21, 84, 49, 50, 75
– Note sequence of steps carried out
10
Improved Schemes• These 3 sorts - have computing time O(n2)• We seek improved computing times for sorts of large data
sets
• There are sorting schemes which can be proven to have average computing time
O( n log2n )
• No universally good sorting scheme– Results may depend on the order of the list
11
Comparisons of Sorts
• Sort of a randomly generated list of 500 items– Note: times are on 1970s hardware

Indirect Sorts
• What happens if items being sorted are large structures (like objects)?– Data transfer/swapping time unacceptable
• Alternative is indirect sort– Uses index table to store positions of the objects
– Manipulate the index table for ordering
13
Heaps
A heap is a binary tree with properties:
1. It is complete• Each level of tree completely filled• Except possibly bottom level (nodes in left most
positions)
2. It satisfies heap-order property• Data in each node >= data in children

16
Implementing a Heap
• Use an array or vector
• Number the nodes from top to bottom, then on each row – left to right.
• Store data in ith node in ith location of array (vector)
17
Implementing a Heap
• Note the placement of the nodes in the array
41
18
Implementing a Heap
• In an array implementation children of ith node are at myArray[2*i] and
myArray[2*i+1]• Parent of the ith node is at
mayArray[i/2]
19
Basic Heap Operations
• Constructor– Set mySize to 0, allocate array (if dynamic array)
• Empty– Check value of mySize
• Retrieve max item– Return root of the binary tree, myArray[1]
20
Basic Heap Operations
• Delete max item (popHeap)– Max item is the root, replace with last node in
tree
– Then interchange root with larger of two children– Continue this with the resulting sub-tree(s) –
result is a new heap.
Result called a semiheap
Result called a semiheap

Percolate Down Algorithmconverts semiheap to heap
1. Set c = 2 * r //location of left child
2. While r <= n do following // must be child(s) for root
a. If c < n and myArray[c] < myArray[c + 1]Increment c by 1 //find larger child
b. If myArray[r] < myArray[c]i. Swap myArray[r] and myArray[c]ii. set r = ciii. set c = 2 * r
else Terminate repetitionEnd while
r = current root node
n = number of nodes
24
Basic Heap Operations
• Insert an item (pushHeap)– Amounts to a percolate up routine– Place new item at end of array
– Interchange with parent so long as it is greater than its parent

Heapsort
• Given a list of numbers in an array– Stored in a complete binary tree
• Convert to a heap (heapify)– Begin at last node not a leaf– Apply “percolated down” to this subtree– Continue

Heapsort
• Algorithm for converting a complete binary tree to a heap – called "heapify"For r = n/2 down to 1:
Apply percolate_down to the subtreein myArray[r] , … myArray[n]
End for
• Puts largest element at root
n = index for last node in treetherefore n/2 is parent
35
Heapsort• Now swap element 1 (root of tree) with last
element
– This puts largest element in correct location
• Use percolate down on remaining sublist– Converts from semi-heap to heap
36
Heapsort
• Again swap root with rightmost leaf
• Continue this process with shrinking sublist

37
Heapsort Algorithm
1. Consider x as a complete binary tree, use heapify to convert this tree to a heap
2. for i = n down to 2:a. Interchange x[1] and x[i] (puts largest element at end)b. Apply percolate_down to convert binary tree corresponding to sublist in x[1] .. x[i-1]

Priority Queue
• A collection of data elements– Items stored in order by priority– Higher priority items removed ahead of lower
Implementation ?
43
Implementation possibilities
list (array, vector, linked list)
insert – O(1)
remove max - O(n)
ordered list
insert - linear insertion sort O(n)
remove max - O(1)– Heap (Best)
Basic operations have O(log2n) time
44
Priority Queue
Basic Operations– Constructor– Insert– Find, remove smallest/largest (priority) element– Replace – Change priority– Delete an item– Join two priority queues into a larger one
45
Priority Queue• STL priority queue adapter uses heap
priority_queue<BigNumber, vector<BigNumber> > v;cout << "BIG NUMBER DEMONSTRATION" << endl;for(int k=0;k<6;k++){
cout << "Enter BigNumber: "; cin >> a;v.push(a);
}cout<<"POP IN ORDER"<<endl;while(!v.empty()){
cout<<v.top()<<endl;v.pop();
}
46
Quicksort• More efficient exchange sorting scheme
– (bubble sort is an exchange sort)
• Typical exchange: involves elements that are far apart
Fewer interchanges are required to correctly position an element.
• Quicksort uses a divide-and-conquer strategyA recursive approach:– The original problem partitioned into simpler
sub problems– Each sub problem considered independently.
• Subdivision continues until sub problems obtained are simple enough to be solved directly
47
Quicksort
Basic Algorithm• Choose an element - pivot • Perform sequence of exchanges so that
<elements less than P> <P> <elements greater than P>– All elements that are less than this pivot are to its left and
– All elements that are greater than the pivot are to its right.
• Divides the (sub)list into two smaller sub lists, • Each of which may then be sorted independently in
the same way.
48
Quicksortrecursive
If the list has 0 or 1 elements, ANCHORreturn. // the list is sorted
Else do:Pick an element in the list to use as the pivot.
Split the remaining elements into two disjoint groups:SmallerThanPivot = {all elements < pivot}LargerThanPivot = {all elements > pivot}
Return the list rearranged as: Quicksort(SmallerThanPivot),
pivot, Quicksort(LargerThanPivot).
49
Quicksort Example
• Given to sort:75, 70, 65, , 98, 78, 100, 93, 55, 61, 81,
• Select arbitrarily pivot: the first element 75• Search from right for elements <= 75, stop at
first match• Search from left for elements > 75, stop at first
match• Swap these two elements, and then repeat this
process. When can you stop?

50
Quicksort Example
75, 70, 65, 68, 61, 55, 100, 93, 78, 98, 81, 84
• When done, swap with pivot• This SPLIT operation places pivot 75 so
that all elements to the left are <= 75 and all elements to the right are >75.
• 75 is in place. • Need to sort sublists on either side of 75
51
Quicksort Example
• Need to sort (independently):
55, 70, 65, 68, 61 and
100, 93, 78, 98, 81, 84
• Let pivot be 55, look from each end for values larger/smaller than 55, swap
• Same for 2nd list, pivot is 100
• Sort the resulting sublists in the same manner until sublist is trivial (size 0 or 1)

Quicksort Performance
• O(n log2n) is the average case computing time– If the pivot results in sublists of approximately
the same size.
• O(n2) worst-case – List already ordered or elements in reverse. – When Split() repeatedly creates a sublist
with one element. (when pivot is always smallest or largest value)

12 34 45 56 78 88 90 100
64
Improvements to Quicksort
• An arbitrary pivot gives a poor partition for nearly sorted lists (or lists in reverse)
• Virtually all the elements go into either SmallerThanPivot or LargerThanPivot– all through the recursive calls.
• Quicksort takes quadratic time to do essentially nothing at all.
12 34 45 56 78 88 90 100
65
Improvements to Quicksort
• Better method for selecting the pivot is the median-of-three rule,
– Select the median (middle value) of the first, middle, and last elements in each sublist as the pivot.
(4 10 6) - median is 6
• Often the list to be sorted is already partially ordered
• Median-of-three rule will select a pivot closer to the middle of the sublist than will the “first-element” rule.
66
Improvements to Quicksort
• Quicksort is a recursive function– stack of activation records must be maintained
by system to manage recursion.– The deeper the recursion is, the larger this stack
will become. (major overhead)
• The depth of the recursion and the corresponding overhead can be reduced – sort the smaller sublist at each stage
67
Improvements to Quicksort
• Another improvement aimed at reducing the overhead of recursion is to use an iterative version of Quicksort()
Implementation: use a stack to store the first and last positions of the sublists sorted "recursively". In other words – create your own low-overhead execution stack.
68
Improvements to Quicksort
• For small files (n <= 20), quicksort is worse than insertion sort; – small files occur often because of recursion.
• Use an efficient sort (e.g., insertion sort) for small files.
• Better yet, use Quicksort() until sublists are of a small size and then apply an efficient sort like insertion sort.
69
Mergesort• Sorting schemes are either …
• internal -- designed for data items stored in main memory
• external -- designed for data items stored in secondary memory.
• Previous sorting schemes were all internal sorting algorithms:– required direct access to list elements
• not possible for sequential files
– made many passes through the list • not practical for files
70
Mergesort
• Mergesort can be used both as an internal and an external sort.
• Basic operation in mergesort is merging, – combining two lists that have previously been
sorted – resulting list is also sorted.
71
Merge Algorithm
1. Open File1 and File2 for input, File3 for output2. Read first element x from File1 and
first element y from File23. While neither eof File1 or eof File2
If x < y thena. Write x to File3b. Read a new x value from File1
Otherwisea. Write y to File3b. Read a new y from File2
End while4. If eof File1 encountered copy rest of of File2 into File3.
If eof File2 encountered, copy rest of File1 into File3
72
Binary Merge Sort
• Given a single file
• Split into two files (alternatively into each file)
73
Binary Merge Sort
• Merge first one-element "subfile" of F1 with first one-element subfile of F2– Gives a sorted two-element subfile of F
• Continue with rest of one-element subfiles
74
Binary Merge Sort
• Split again
• Merge again as before
• Each time, the size of the sorted subgroups doubles
75
Binary Merge Sort
• Last splitting gives two files each in order
• Last merging yields a single file, entirely in order
Note we always are limited to subfiles of
some power of 2
Note we always are limited to subfiles of
some power of 2
76
Natural Merge Sort
• Allows sorted subfiles of other sizes– Number of phases can be reduced when file
contains longer "runs" of ordered elements
• Consider file to be sorted, note in order groups
77
Natural Merge Sort
• Copy alternate groupings into two files– Use the sub-groupings, not a power of 2
• Look for possible larger groupings
78
Natural Merge Sort
• Merge the corresponding sub files
EOF for F2, Copy remaining groups from F1
EOF for F2, Copy remaining groups from F1
79
Natural Merge Sort
• Split again, alternating groups
• Merge again, now two subgroups
• One more split, one more merge gives sort
80
Natural Merge Sort
Split algorithm for natural merge sort
1. Open F for input and F1 and F2 for output
2. While the end of F has not been reached:a. Copy a sorted subfile of F into F1 as follows: repeatedly
read an element of F and write it to F1 until the next element in F is smaller than this copied item or the end of F is reached.
b. If the end of F has not been reached, copy the next sorted subfile of F into F2 using the method above.

Natural Merge SortMerge algorithm for natural merge sort1. Open F1 and F2 for input, F for output.2. Initialize numSubfiles to 03. While not eof F1 or not eof F2
a. While no end of subfile in F1 or F2 has been reached: If the next element in F1 is less than the next element in F2
Copy the next element from F1 into F.Else
Copy the next element from F2 into F.End While
b. If the eof F1 has been reached Copy the rest of subfile F2 to F.Else Copy the rest of subfile F1 to F.
c. Increment numSubfiles by 1. End While
4. Copy any remaining subfiles to F, incrementing numSubfiles by 1 for each.

Natural Merge Sort
Mergesort algorithm
Repeat the following until numSubfiles is equal to 1:
1. Call the Split algorithm to split F into files F1 and F2.
2. Call the Merge algorithm to merge corresponding subfiles in F1 and F2 back into F.
Worst case for natural merge sort O(n log2n)

Sorting Fact
• any algorithm which performs sorting using comparisons cannot have a worst-case performance better than O(n log n)– a sorting algorithm based on comparisons
cannot be O(n) - even for its average runtime.
90
Radix Sort• Based on examining digits in some base-b
numeric representation of items
• Least significant digit radix sort– Processes digits from right to left
• Create groupings of items with same value in specified digit– Collect in order and create grouping with next significant
digit
91
Radix SortOrder ten 2 digit numbers in 10 bins from smallest number to largest number. Requires 2 calls to the sort Algorithm.
Initial Sequence: 91 6 85 15 92 35 30 22 39Pass 0: Distribute the cards into bins according
to the 1's digit (100).

Sort Algorithm Analysis
• Selection Sort (uses a swap)– Worst and average case O(n^2)– can be used with linked-list (doesn’t require
random-access data)– Can be done in place– not at all fast for nearly sorted data
94
Sort Algorithm Analysis
• Bubble Sort (uses an exchange)– Worst and average case O(n^2)– Since it is using localized exchanges - can be
used with linked-list– Can be done in place– O(n^2) - even if only one item is out of place
95
Sort Algorithm Analysissorts actually used
• Insertion Sort (uses an insert)– Worst and average case O(n^2)– Does not require random-access data– Can be done in place– It is fast (linear time) for nearly sorted data– It is fast for small lists
Most good sorting methods call Insertion Sort for small lists
96
Sort Algorithm Analysissorts actually used
• Merge Sort– Worst and average case O(n log n)– Does not require random-access data– For linked-list - can be done in place– For an array - need to use a buffer– It is not significantly faster on nearly sorted data
(but it is still log-linear time)
97
Sort Algorithm Analysissorts actually used
• QuickSort– Worst O(n^2)– Average case O(n log n) [good time]– can be done in place– Additional space for recursion O(log n)– Can be slow O(n^2) for nearly sorted or reverse
data.– Sort used for STL sort()
