LOL!  I know that martins would be interested in this; he has/had a CS240 exam today, and was reviewing sorts with me all last night! :-P

This would have been VERY useful if you had posted this last night!

It's all good though.  I rocked that test.  Also, I noticed that it said that quick sort was the quickest algorithm; however, in a worst case scenario merge sort is quicker since it is always O(nlogn) and quick sort in the worst case is O(n^2) depending on where the pivots are.  :-D

sorting is for boring people...i like to use a random number generator to pick what index i'll check in my array of items...keeps things interesting :-?

sor-ting  al-go-rithm?


I have a vague memory of learning these.  now i just get to use vague terms like "take your time" "very fast"  and "warp speed"
