  2. Timsort - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timsort

    This is done by merging runs until certain criteria are fulfilled. Timsort has been Python's standard sorting algorithm since version 2.3 (since version 3.11 using the Powersort merge policy [5]), and is used to sort arrays of non-primitive type in Java SE 7, [6] on the Android platform, [7] in GNU Octave, [8] on V8, [9] and Swift.

  4. Block sort - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Block_Sort

    The outer loop of block sort is identical to a bottom-up merge sort, where each level of the sort merges pairs of subarrays, A and B, in sizes of 1, then 2, then 4, 8, 16, and so on, until both subarrays combined are the array itself.

  5. Merge algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Merge_algorithm

    The single list is the sorted list. The merge algorithm is used repeatedly in the merge sort algorithm. An example merge sort is given in the illustration. It starts with an unsorted array of 7 integers. The array is divided into 7 partitions; each partition contains 1 element and is sorted.

  6. Schwartzian transform - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schwartzian_transform

    In computer programming, the Schwartzian transform is a technique used to improve the efficiency of sorting a list of items. This idiom [1] is appropriate for comparison-based sorting when the ordering is actually based on the ordering of a certain property (the key) of the elements, where computing that property is an intensive operation that should be performed a minimal number of times.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Merge_sort

    In computer science, merge sort (also commonly spelled as mergesort and as merge-sort [2]) is an efficient, general-purpose, and comparison-based sorting algorithm.Most implementations produce a stable sort, which means that the relative order of equal elements is the same in the input and output.
