چکیده

The number of comparisons required to select the i-th smallest of n numbers is shown to be at most a linear function of n by analysis of a new selection algorithm -PICK. Specifically, no more than 5.4305 n comparisons are ever required. This bound is improved for extreme values of i , and a new lower bound on the requisite number of comparisons is also proved. This work was supported by the National Science Foundation under grants GJ-992 and GJ-33170X.
