Sort an array of numbers using Quicksort

• nested loops: repeat-until, forall, while
• recursive calls of procedures
• overloading of subroutines

  * Implements Quicksort:                               *
  * After selecting a partitioning value v the original *
  * array is partitioned into two subarrays by pairwise *
  * exchange of elements. At the end of a round of      *
  * partitioning, all elements in the left subarray are *
  * less or equal the partitioning value, all elements  *
  * in the right subarray are greater or equal v.       *
  * The process is then repeated to the left and right  *
  * subarrays independently, and so on.                 *
  *                                                     *
