A Noble Randomized Quicksort with a Random Number Generator
نویسنده
چکیده
Sorting is a well-known computational problem. Sorting means arranging a set of records (or a list of keys) in some (increasing or decreasing) order. Randomized algorithms often have low complexity and are associated to robustness bounds, which are generally less conservative than the classical ones. This paper presents a noble randomized Quicksort with a random number generator. This randomized Quicksort can solve the problems in a better way when permutations of the input numbers are not equally likely. The detailed algorithm is presented here with explanation. Keyword: Quicksort, randomized Quicksort, algorithm. Journal of Information Technology and Applications Vol. 6, No. 1, pp. 13-17 2012

Randomized Quicksort and the Entropy of the Random Number Generator
The worst-case complexity of an implementation of Quicksort depends on the random number generator that is used to select the pivot elements. In this paper we estimate the expected number of comparisons of Quicksort as a function in the entropy of the random source. We give upper and lower bounds and show that the expected number of comparisons increases from n log n to n, if the entropy of the...

متن کاملTop-down Randomization of Weighted Search Trees
Aragon and Seidel 1] presented a solution of the dictionary problem which became very popular in the last years. Their algorithm is easy to implement and fast in practice. The main idea consists in simulating a random input by randomly generated priorities assigned to each key. But this method has two substantial drawbacks. The rst one is the large dependence of the performance and correctness ...
متن کاملQuicksort, Largest Bucket, and Min-Wise Hashing with Limited Independence
Randomized algorithms and data structures are often analyzed under the assumption of access to a perfect source of randomness. The most fundamental metric used to measure how “random” a hash function or a random number generator is, is its independence: a sequence of random variables is said to be k-independent if every variable is uniform and every size k subset is independent. In this paper w...
