Shaker (mixing) sorting

Lecture



The algorithm considered in this article has several dissimilar names. Among them: sorting by mixing, bidirectional bubble sorting, shaker sorting, pulsating sorting (ripple sort), transfer sorting (shuttle sort), and even happy hour sort sorting. The second option (bidirectional bubble sort) most accurately describes the process of the algorithm. Here, in its name, the term "bubbly" is quite successfully included. This is really an alternative version of the well-known method, the modifications of which consist, for the most part, in the implementation mentioned in the title, bidirectionality: the algorithm moves, neither as in exchange (bubble) sorting - strictly from bottom to top (left to right), and first from bottom to top, then from top to bottom.

  Shaker (mixing) sorting

The permutation of the elements in the shaker sorting is performed in the same way as in the bubble sorting, i.e., two adjacent elements, if necessary, are swapped. Let the array be ordered in ascending order. Denote each path traveled from the beginning to the end of the sequence by W i , where i is the path number; and the return path (from the end to the beginning) is through -W j , where j is the path number. Then after performing W i , one of the uninstalled elements will be placed in the position on the right, as the largest of the still unsorted elements, and after the execution of -W j , the smallest of the unsorted elements will move to some position on the left. So, for example, after executing W 1 at the end of the array, there will be an element having the largest value, and after -W 1 , the element with the smallest value will go to the beginning.

These temporary indicators do not allow recommending an algorithm for its practical use. In teaching, due to its relative complexity, the method will undoubtedly be useful.
