Since sorting in general is O(n log n), I don't see how you're going to do in in O(n) unless there's something special about your number range you've not told us about. A stable sort limits your choices somewhat more, but not a lot - it usually just imposes a little more care on the comparison stage for most algorithms. I think you need to define the problem in more detail. -- Cameron Simpson <cs@xxxxxxxxxx> DoD#743 http://www.cskk.ezoshosting.com/cs/ Newtons 4th law: For every action there is an equal and opposite beaureaucratic policy. - Adrian Tritschler, ajft@xxxxxxxxxxxxx -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
