Function counting_sort

Source
pub fn counting_sort(arr: &mut [i32])
Expand description

Sorts a slice using the Counting Sort algorithm.

Counting sort works by counting the occurrences of each element and then reconstructing the sorted array based on the counts.

§Parameters

  • arr: A mutable reference to the slice of integers to be sorted.

§Time Complexity

  • Best: O(n + k)
  • Worst: O(n + k)
  • Average: O(n + k)

§Space Complexity

  • O(k) (requires extra space for the count array)

§Examples

use dsa::algorithms::sorting::counting_sort;

let mut arr = [5, 3, 8, 4, 2];
counting_sort(&mut arr);
assert_eq!(arr, [2, 3, 4, 5, 8]);
