how do i go about conducting a sort algorithm experiment using bubble sort, quicksort, and one other. Please help
You split the algorithms into groups, give one of them caffeine pills and the other a placebo and stand back.
REAL ANSWER: Presumably you want to run each of them and see which one finishes first.
That's a pretty vague question. What kind of experiment do you want to do? Do you know what each algorithm is? Have you implemented them individually?
ok guys i have to do an assignment, the lecture say that it is ok to get the sorting algorithm online. i was really hoping that you could have point me in the right direction. any how here is the assignment:
Select three sorting algorithm
-bubble sort
-quicksort
-and another of my choice
Conduct empirical experiment to compare and contrats their run time performance. Discuss issues that impact run time performance. Use graph to illustrate results.
So here it is, any ideas and/or sort algorithms that i can use or modify to get what i want

hi guys i complete that assigment, is willing to share since no one could have help
I don't know what that means. Is clairmonte angry that we didn't do the homework?
I think so, I provided a lot of help

Here's a good start:
Code:#include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <time.h> #define Max 28000 int A[Max]; void showIt(void); int sort_function(const void *a, const void *b); int main(void) { int i, j, gap, swaps, temp, value; clock_t start, stop; //Insertion sort for(i = 0; i < Max; i++) A[i] = rand() % 1000; start = clock(); for(i = 1; i < Max; i++) { value = A[i]; j = i - 1; while(j >= 0 && A[j] > value) { A[j + 1] = A[j]; --j; } A[j+1] = value; } stop = clock(); printf("\n Insertion?? sort, used %f seconds", (stop-start)/CLK_TCK); // i = getchar(); // showIt(); //C Standard Library median of 3, Quicksort for(i = 0; i < Max; i++) A[i] = rand() % 1000; start = clock(); qsort(A, Max, sizeof(A[0]), sort_function); stop = clock(); printf("\n Qsort used %f seconds", (stop-start)/CLK_TCK); //i = getchar(); // showIt(); void showIt(void) { int i; for(i = 0; i < Max; i++) printf("%4d ", A[i]); } int sort_function(const void *a, const void *b) { return(*(int*)a - *(int*)b); }
