Arguments
|
sense
|
Sense of the sorting:
|
||||
|
lvals
|
List to be sorted
|
||||
|
vals
|
One-dimensional array to be sorted
|
||||
|
ndx
|
One-dimensional array of the same type and size as the indexing set of
vals
|
||||
|
lndx
|
List of the same type as the indexing set of
vals
|
||||
|
sel
|
Subset of the indexing set of
vals
|
Example
The following example sorts an array of real numbers:
declarations
ar: array(1..10) of real
end-declarations
ar:: [1.2, -3, -8, 10.5, 4, 7, 2.9, -1, 0, 5]
qsort(true, ar)
writeln("Sorted array: ", ar)
Further information
1. In the first four versions of the procedure (with two arguments,
sense and
vals or
lvals) the input array (list)
vals (
lvals) is overwritten by the resulting sorted array (list).
2. When an array
ndx is provided, the resulting sorted array is returned in the argument
ndx in the form of its sorted index set. If a selection set sel of indices is provided, only the specified indices are processed.
3. When a list
lndx is provided, the resulting sorted array is returned in the argument
lndx in the form of a list of sorted indices. If a selection set sel of indices is provided, only the specified indices are processed.
4. When applied to a dynamic array this procedure processes all indices of the index set including those not referring to an existing cell (a subset of the indexing set
sel can be used to select only the existing entries).
