PT Sort: a Non-Comparison Sort Using the Sum of the Power of Two

Authors: Yu-Cheng Liu

Sorting algorithm is one of the most important fields in computer science. People learn sort algorithms before learning other advanced algorithms. Since sorting is important, computer scientists study and try to create new sorting algorithms. The paper is composed of five themed sections: Introduction, Method, Analyzis, Experiment Result, and Conclusion. The first section of this paper will give a brief overview of the algorithm and introduce a new way to sort a list called PT sort, a non-comparison integer sorting algorithm that is based on subtracting the largest exponent with radix two, then using recursion and traverse on every separated list. Section two and three begins by laying out the theoretical dimensions of the research, proposes the methodology, and analyzes the time complexity of PT sort. The forth section presents the findings of the research, focusing on the result of the experiment. The time complexity and space complexity of PT sort is approximatly ��(�� ∙ log2 ��) where n is the number of the numbers being sorted and r is the largest number in the list.
