QuickSort is a divide-and-conquer algorithm. It works by selecting a 'pivot' element from the array and partitioning the other elements into two sub-arrays, according to whether they are less than or greater than the pivot.
Implemented using Java:
class QuickSort
{
int partition(int arr[], int low, int high)
{
int pivot = arr[high];
int i = (low-1);
for (int j=low; j<high; j++)
{
if (arr[j] <= pivot)
{
i++;
int temp = arr[i];
arr[i] = arr[j];
arr[j] = temp;
}
}
int temp = arr[i+1];
arr[i+1] = arr[high];
arr[high] = temp;
return i+1;
}
void sort(int arr[], int low, int high)
{
if (low < high)
{
int pi = partition(arr, low, high);
sort(arr, low, pi-1);
sort(arr, pi+1, high);
}
}
static void print_Array(int arr[])
{
int n = arr.length;
for (int i=0; i<n; ++i)
System.out.print(arr[i]+" ");
System.out.println();
}
public static void main(String args[])
{
int arr[] = {10, 7, 8, 9, 1, 5};
int n = arr.length;
QuickSort ob = new QuickSort();
ob.sort(arr, 0, n-1);
System.out.println("sorted array");
print_Array(arr);
}
}
