Sort an array of integers using Counting sort
Counting sort is the fastest sorting algorithm when the following criteria are met:
- You only have integers
- You know the minimum and the maximum value contained in the array
Note: Not only is it better to sort an integer array using Counting sort, it will actually not work if you try to sort anything else (like floats), so if things don't work, that's where you should be looking
npm install contingsort
# or
yarn add countingsortimport { countingSort } from 'countingSort'
const myArray = [5, 3, 2, 0, 6, 4, 3, 6, 10, 0, 3, 2]
countingSort(myArray, 0, 10) // should sort the array to [0,0,2,2,3,3,3,4,5,6,6,10]
// Note: this algorithm actually modifies the input arrayMIT
