2 Quick Sort Proposed by C. A. R. Hoare in 1962 Divide-and-Conquer algorithm Sorts in place (like Insertion sort, not like Merge Sort) Very practical (with tuning) 2

3 Quick Sort Sort an n-element array Divide-and-Conquer Algorithm 1. Divide: Partition the array into two sub-arrays around a Pivot x such that elements in sub-array-1 x elements in sub-array-2 x x x 2. Conquer: Recursively sort two sub-arrays. 3. Combine: Trivial. Key: Linear-time partitioning algorithm 3

4 Quick Sort Partitioning Algorithm 4 Partition(A, LeftIndex, RightIndex){ x = A[LeftIndex] i = LeftIndex for j = LeftIndex+1 to RightIndex { if A[j] x then i= i+ 1 exchange A[i] A[j] } exchange A[LeftIndex] A[i] Return i } Left Index Running Time = O(n) for n-elements x x x? Right Index

17 Quick Sort Quicksort(A, LeftIndex, RightIndex) { } if LeftIndex < RightIndex then PivotIndex = Partition(A, LeftIndex, RightIndex) Quicksort(A, LeftIndex, PivotIndex-1) Quicksort(A, PivotIndex+1, RightIndex) Initial Call: Quicksort(A, 1, n) 17

18 Analysis of Quick Sort Assume all input elements are distinct. In practice, there are better partitioning algorithms for when duplicate input elements may exist. Let T(n) = Worst-case running time on an array of n elements. 18

19 Worst-case of Quick Sort Input sorted or reversely sorted Partitioning around min or max element. One side of partition always has no elements. (Arithmetic series) 19

20 Worst-case Recursion Tree 20

22 Worst-case Recursion Tree cn T(0) T(n-1) 22

23 Worst-case Recursion Tree cn T(0) c(n-1) T(0) T(n-2) 23

24 Worst-case Recursion Tree cn T(0) c(n-1) T(0) c(n-2) T(0) 24 Θ(1)

25 Worst-case Recursion Tree cn T(0) c(n-1) T(0) c(n-2) T(0) 25 Θ(1)

26 Worst-case Recursion Tree cn h=n Θ(1) ) c(n-1) Θ(1) c(n-2) Θ(1) 26 Θ(1)

27 Best-case Analysis of Quick Sort If we are lucky, Partition splits the input array evenly: same as merge sort What if the split is always? What is the solution to this recursion? 27

28 Analysis of Almost-Best case T(n) 28

29 Analysis of Almost-Best case cn T(n/10) T(9n/10) 29

Quicksort. The divide-and-conquer strategy is used in quicksort. Below the recursion step is described: Quicksort Quicksort is a divide and conquer algorithm. Quicksort first divides a large list into two smaller sub-lists: the low elements and the high elements. Quicksort can then recursively sort the sub-lists.
