BubbleSort is in-place. It does not require any * temporary storage. * * Objects are not made aware that they are being moved around in memory. * Assignment operators, constructors and destructors are never invoked by the * sort. * * BubbleSort runs in O(n^2) time. It is most useful when sorting arrays that * are nearly sorted. It is best when neighbouring pairs are out of place. * BubbleSort is a stable sort, meaning that objects with the same key have * their relative ordering preserved. */ /*@}*/ /* BubbleSort. */ template class BubbleSort : public Compare { public: /* Sorting interface routine. */ void sort(T *data, long len); }; /** * \brief Bubble sort an array of data. */ template void BubbleSort:: sort(T *data, long len) { bool changed = true; for ( long pass = 1; changed && pass < len; pass ++ ) { changed = false; for ( long i = 0; i < len-pass; i++ ) { /* Do we swap pos with the next one? */ if ( this->compare( data[i], data[i+1] ) > 0 ) { char tmp[sizeof(T)]; /* Swap the two items. */ memcpy( tmp, data+i, sizeof(T) ); memcpy( data+i, data+i+1, sizeof(T) ); memcpy( data+i+1, tmp, sizeof(T) ); /* Note that we made a change. */ changed = true; } } } } #ifdef AAPL_NAMESPACE } #endif #endif /* _AAPL_BUBBLESORT_H */
