במאמר זה, נדון באלגוריתם Quicksort. גם הליך העבודה של Quicksort הוא פשוט. מאמר זה יהיה מאוד מועיל ומעניין לסטודנטים מכיוון שהם עשויים להתמודד עם מיון מהיר כשאלה בבחינות שלהם. לכן, חשוב לדון בנושא.

מיון הוא דרך לסדר פריטים בצורה שיטתית. Quicksort הוא אלגוריתם המיון הנפוץ שעושה n log n השוואות במקרה ממוצע למיון מערך של n אלמנטים. זהו אלגוריתם מיון מהיר יותר ויעיל במיוחד. אלגוריתם זה עוקב אחר גישת ההפרד ומשול. הפרד וכבש היא טכניקה של פירוק האלגוריתמים לתת-בעיות, ואז פתרון בעיות המשנה, ושילוב התוצאות יחד כדי לפתור את הבעיה המקורית.

אלגוריתם kmp

לחלק: בחלוקה, תחילה בחר אלמנט ציר. לאחר מכן, חלקו או סדרו מחדש את המערך לשני תת-מערכים כך שכל אלמנט בתת-מערך השמאלי קטן או שווה לאלמנט pivot וכל אלמנט בתת-מערך הימני גדול יותר מאלמנט pivot.

לִכבּוֹשׁ: באופן רקורסיבי, מיין שני מערכי משנה עם Quicksort.

לְשַׁלֵב: שלב את המערך שכבר ממוין.

Quicksort בוחר אלמנט בתור ציר, ואז הוא מחלק את המערך הנתון סביב אלמנט הציר שנבחר. במיון מהיר, מערך גדול מחולק לשני מערכים שבהם אחד מחזיק ערכים קטנים מהערך שצוין (Pivot), ומערך אחר מחזיק את הערכים הגדולים מהציר.

לאחר מכן, מערכי משנה משמאל וימין מחולקים גם הם באמצעות אותה גישה. זה ימשיך עד שהאלמנט הבודד יישאר במערך המשנה.

בחירת הציר

בחירת ציר טוב היא הכרחית ליישום מהיר של quicksort. עם זאת, אופייני לקבוע ציר טוב. כמה מהדרכים לבחירת ציר הן כדלקמן -

• Pivot יכול להיות אקראי, כלומר בחר את הציר האקראי מהמערך הנתון.
• Pivot יכול להיות האלמנט הימני ביותר של האלמנט השמאלי ביותר של המערך הנתון.
• בחר חציון כאלמנט הציר.

We will also see the space complexity of quicksort.</p> <h3>1.

The best-case time complexity of quicksort is <strong>O(n*logn)</strong> . </tr><tr><td>Average Case Complexity -</td> It occurs when the array elements are in jumbled order that is not properly ascending and not properly descending. The average case time complexity of quicksort is <strong>O(n*logn)</strong> . </tr><tr><td>Worst Case Complexity -</td> In quick sort, worst case occurs when the pivot element is either greatest or smallest element. Suppose, if the pivot element is always the last element of the array, the worst case would occur when the given array is sorted already in ascending or descending order. The worst-case time complexity of quicksort is <strong>O(n<sup>2</sup>)</strong> . </tr></ul> <p>Though the worst-case complexity of quicksort is more than other sorting algorithms such as <strong>Merge sort</strong> and <strong>Heap sort</strong> , still it is faster in practice. Worst case in quick sort rarely occurs because by changing the choice of pivot, it can be implemented in different ways. Worst case in quicksort can be avoided by choosing the right pivot element.</p> <h3>2.
