implementation of quicksort, it has the advantage of a worst-case O(n log n) runtime. Heapsort is an in-place algorithm, but is not a stable sort.

that, on average, makes (big O notation) comparisons to sort n items.

sorting algorithm. It is stable, meaning that it preserves the input order of equal elements in the sorted output. It is an example of the divide and conquer algorithmic paradigm.
It was invented by John von Neumann in 1945.
