Subject: Sorting implemented in Guile standard library
Date: Sun, 16 Aug 2020 22:56:11 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1218f943-ea4d-2c67-7ff4-b4747a12194d@posteo.de> (raw)
Hello Guile Users!
I was checking out
https://www.gnu.org/software/guile/manual/html_node/Sorting.html and
noticed, that the definition of `sort` does not mention, which algorithm
is used for sorting:
> Sort the sequence items, which may be a list or a vector. less is used
for comparing the sequence elements. This is not a stable sort.
So my question is: Which algorithm is used for Guile's `sort` function?
Regards,
Zelphir
