19 12-17: Divide & Conquer Merge Sort: Divide the list two parts No work required just calculate midpoint Recursively sort two parts Combine sorted lists into one list Some work required need to merge lists Department of Computer Science University of San Francisco p.19/45

20 12-18: Divide & Conquer Quick Sort: Divide the list two parts Some work required Small elements in left sublist, large elements in right sublist Recursively sort two parts Combine sorted lists into one list No work required! Department of Computer Science University of San Francisco p.20/45

21 12-19: Quick Sort Pick a pivot element Reorder the list: All elements < pivot Pivot element All elements > pivot Recursively sort elements < pivot Recursively sort elements > pivot Department of Computer Science University of San Francisco p.21/45

22 12-20: Example Example: Suppose 3 is our pivot Split into Sort left half - suppose 2 is the pivot Sort right half - suppose 1 is the pivot Recurse and merge Department of Computer Science University of San Francisco p.22/45

23 12-21: Quick Sort - Partitioning Basic Idea: Swap pivot element out of the way (we ll swap it back later) Maintain two pointers, i and j i points to the beginning of the list j points to the end of the list Move i and j in to the middle of the list ensuring that all elements to the left of i are < the pivot, and all elememnts to the right of j are greater than the pivot Swap pivot element back to middle of list Department of Computer Science University of San Francisco p.23/45

24 12-22: Quick Sort - Partitioning Pseudocode: Pick a pivot index Swap A[pivotindex] and A[high] Set i low, j high 1 while (i <= j) while A[i] < A[pivot], increment i while A[j] > A[pivot], decrement i swap A[i] and A[j] increment i, decrement j swap A[i] and A[pivot] Department of Computer Science University of San Francisco p.24/45

25 12-23: Θ() for Quick Sort Coming up with a recurrence relation for quicksort is harder than mergesort How the problem is divided depends upon the data Break list into: size 0, size n 1 size 1, size n 2... size (n 1)/2, size (n 1)/2... size n 2, size 1 size n 1, size 0 Department of Computer Science University of San Francisco p.25/45

26 12-24: Θ() for Quick Sort Worst case performance occurs when break list into size n 1 and size 0 T (0) = c 1 for some constant c 1 T (1) = c 2 for some constant c 2 T (n) = nc 3 + T (n 1) + T (0) for some constant c 3 T (n) = nc 3 + T (n 1) + T (0) = T (n 1) + nc 3 + c 2 Department of Computer Science University of San Francisco p.26/45

28 12-26: Θ() for Quick Sort Worst case: T (n) = T (n 1) + nc 3 + c 2 T (n) = T (n 1) + nc 3 + c 2 = [T (n 2) + (n 1)c 3 + c 2 ] + nc 3 + c 2 = T (n 2) + (n + (n 1))c 3 + 2c 2 Department of Computer Science University of San Francisco p.28/45

32 Worst case: T (n) = T (n k) + ( k 1 i=0 (n i)c 3) + kc 2 Set k = n: T (n) = T (n k) + ( k 1 i=0 (n i)c 3) + kc 2 = T (n n) + ( n 1 i=0 (n i)c 3) + kc 2 = T (0) + ( n 1 i=0 (n i)c 3) + kc 2 = T (0) + ( n 1 i=0 ic 3) + kc 2 = c 1 + c 3 n(n + 1)/2 + kc 2 Θ(n 2 ) 12-30: Θ() for Quick Sort Department of Computer Science University of San Francisco p.32/45

39 12-37: Θ() for Quick Sort Best case performance occurs when break list into size (n 1)/2 and size (n 1)/2 T (0) = c 1 for some constant c 1 T (1) = c 2 for some constant c 2 T (n) = nc 3 + 2T (n/2) for some constant c 3 This is the same as Merge Sort: Θ(n lg n) Department of Computer Science University of San Francisco p.39/45

40 12-38: Quick Sort? If Quicksort is Θ(n 2 ) on some lists, why is it called quick? Most lists give running time of Θ(n lg n) Average case running time is Θ(n lg n) Constants are very small Constants don t matter when complexity is different Constants do matter when complexity is the same What lists will cause Quick Sort to have Θ(n 2 ) performance? Department of Computer Science University of San Francisco p.40/45

41 12-39: Quick Sort - Worst Case Quick Sort has worst-case performance when: The list is sorted (or almost sorted) The list is inverse sorted (or almost inverse sorted) Many lists we want to sort are almost sorted! How can we fix Quick Sort? Department of Computer Science University of San Francisco p.41/45

42 12-40: Better Partitions Pick the middle element as the pivot Sorted and reverse sorted lists give good performance Pick a random element as the pivot No single list always gives bad performance Pick the median of 3 elements First, Middle, Last 3 Random Elements Department of Computer Science University of San Francisco p.42/45

43 12-41: Improving Quick Sort Insertion Sort runs faster than Quick Sort on small lists Why? We can combine Quick Sort & Insertion Sort When lists get small, run Insertion Sort instead of a recursive call to Quick Sort When lists get small, stop! After call to Quick Sort, list will be almost sorted finish the job with a single call to Insertion Sort Department of Computer Science University of San Francisco p.43/45

44 12-42: Heap Sort Build a heap out of the data Repeat: Remove the largest element from the list, place it at end of heap Until all elements have been removed from the heap The list is now sorted Example: Department of Computer Science University of San Francisco p.44/45

45 12-43: Θ() for Heap Sort Building the heap takes time Θ(n) Each of the n RemoveMax calls takes time O(lg n) Total time: (n lg n) (also Θ(n lg n)) Department of Computer Science University of San Francisco p.45/45
