Would someone care to add some text describing the Quicksort algorithm? I.e., its worst-case completion time, a pseudocode implementation, what the pivot does, etc. --[[User:Short Circuit|Short Circuit]] 03:28, 7 October 2007 (MDT) |

Revision as of 09:28, 7 October 2007
Details I'm uncertain on:
- Should it be the in-place form of quicksort, or is it unspecified?
- What is a discrete type?
- Should the program as given work for all arrays with indexes "of any discrete type", or should I pick one "discrete type" and give an example with that?
