Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method and Description

a	back to summary
private Object[] a The array being sorted.

DEBUG	back to summary
private static final boolean DEBUG Asserts have been placed in if-statements for performace. To enable them, set this field to true and enable them in VM with a command line flag. If you modify this class, please do test the asserts!

INITIAL_TMP_STORAGE_LENGTH	back to summary
private static final int INITIAL_TMP_STORAGE_LENGTH Maximum initial size of tmp array, which is used for merging. The array can grow to accommodate demand. Unlike Tim's original C version, we do not allocate this much storage when sorting smaller arrays. This change was required for performance.

MIN_GALLOP	back to summary
private static final int MIN_GALLOP When we get into galloping mode, we stay there until both runs win less often than MIN_GALLOP consecutive times.

MIN_MERGE back to summary

MIN_MERGE	back to summary
private static final int MIN_MERGE This is the minimum sized sequence that will be merged. Shorter sequences will be lengthened by calling binarySort. If the entire array is less than this length, no merges will be performed. This constant should be a power of two. It was 64 in Tim Peter's C implementation, but 32 was empirically determined to work better in this implementation. In the unlikely event that you set this constant to be a number that's not a power of two, you'll need to change the `minRunLength` computation. If you decrease this constant, you must change the stackLen computation in the TimSort constructor, or you risk an ArrayOutOfBounds exception. See listsort.txt for a discussion of the minimum stack length required as a function of the length of the array being sorted and the minimum merge sequence length.

minGallop	back to summary
private int minGallop This controls when we get into galloping mode. It is reset to MIN_GALLOP before each sort. The mergeLo and mergeHi methods nudge it higher for random data, and lower for highly structured data.

runBase	back to summary
private final int[] runBase

runLen	back to summary
private final int[] runLen

stackSize	back to summary
private int stackSize A stack of pending runs yet to be merged. Run i starts at address base[i] and extends for len[i] elements. It's always true (so long as the indices are in bounds) that: runBase[i] + runLen[i] == runBase[i + 1] so we could cut the storage for this, but it's a minor amount, and keeping all the info explicit simplifies the code.

Parameters

Method Detail

binarySort back to summary

binarySort	back to summary
private static void binarySort(Object[] a, int lo, int hi, int start) Sorts the specified portion of the specified array using a binary insertion sort. This is the best method for sorting small numbers of elements. It requires O(n log n) compares, but O(n^2) data movement (worst case). If the initial part of the specified range is already sorted, this method can take advantage of it: the method assumes that the elements from index `lo`, inclusive, to `start`, exclusive are already sorted. Parameters a:Object[] the array in which a range is to be sorted lo:int the index of the first element in the range to be sorted hi:int the index after the last element in the range to be sorted start:int the index of the first element in the range that is not already known to be sorted (@code lo <= start <= hi} Annotations @SuppressWarnings:fallthrough

Sorts the specified portion of the specified array using a binary insertion sort. This is the best method for sorting small numbers of elements. It requires O(n log n) compares, but O(n^2) data movement (worst case). If the initial part of the specified range is already sorted, this method can take advantage of it: the method assumes that the elements from index lo, inclusive, to start, exclusive are already sorted.

Parameters

a:Object[]: the array in which a range is to be sorted
lo:int: the index of the first element in the range to be sorted

countRunAndMakeAscending	back to summary
private static int countRunAndMakeAscending(Object[] a, int lo, int hi) Returns the length of the run beginning at the specified position in the specified array and reverses the run if it is descending (ensuring that the run will always be ascending when the method returns). A run is the longest ascending sequence with: a[lo] <= a[lo + 1] <= a[lo + 2] <= ... or the longest descending sequence with: a[lo] > a[lo + 1] > a[lo + 2] > ... For its intended use in a stable mergesort, the strictness of the definition of "descending" is needed so that the call can safely reverse a descending sequence without violating stability. Parameters a:Object[] the array in which a run is to be counted and possibly reversed lo:int index of the first element in the run hi:int index after the last element that may be contained in the run. It is required that @code{lo < hi}. Returns:int the length of the run beginning at the specified position in the specified array Annotations @SuppressWarnings:unchecked

back to summary

For its intended use in a stable mergesort, the strictness of the definition of "descending" is needed so that the call can safely reverse a descending sequence without violating stability.
