126 Math::GSL::Sort - Functions for sorting data
128 =head1 SYNOPSIS
130 use Math::GSL::Sort qw/:all/;
131 my $x = [ 2**15, 1.67, 20e5, -17, 6900, 1/3 , 42e-10 ];
132 my $sorted = gsl_sort($x, 1, $#$x+1 );
133 my $numbers = [ map { rand(100) } (1..100) ];
134 my ($status, $smallest10) = gsl_sort_smallest($array, 10, $x, 1, $#$x+1);
137 =head1 DESCRIPTION
139 Here is a list of all the functions included in this module :
141 =over
143 =item * gsl_sort_vector($v)
145 This function sorts the elements of the vector $v into ascending numerical order.
147 =item * gsl_sort_vector_index($p, $v)
149 This function indirectly sorts the elements of the vector $v into ascending
150 order, storing the resulting permutation in $p. The elements of $p give the
151 index of the vector element which would have been stored in that position if
152 the vector had been sorted in place. The first element of $p gives the index
153 of the least element in $v, and the last element of $p gives the index of the
154 greatest element in $v. The vector $v is not changed.
156 =item * gsl_sort_vector_smallest($array, $k, $vector)
158 This function outputs 0 if the operation succeeded, 1 otherwise and then the
159 $k smallest elements of the vector $v. $k must be less than or equal to the
160 length of the vector $v.
162 =item * gsl_sort_vector_smallest_index($p, $k, $v)
164 This function outputs 0 if the operation succeeded, 1 otherwise and then the
165 indices of the $k smallest elements of the vector $v. $p must be a prealocated
166 array reference. This should be removed in further versions. $k must be less
167 than or equal to the length of the vector $v.
169 =item * gsl_sort_vector_largest($array, $k, $vector)
171 This function outputs 0 if the operation succeeded, 1 otherwise and then the
172 $k largest elements of the vector $v. $k must be less than or equal to the
173 length of the vector $v.
175 =item * gsl_sort_vector_largest_index($p, $k, $v)
177 This function outputs 0 if the operation succeeded, 1 otherwise and then the
178 indices of the $k largest elements of the vector $v. $p must be a prealocated
179 array reference. This should be removed in further versions. $k must be less
180 than or equal to the length of the vector $v.
182 =item * gsl_sort($data, $stride, $n)
184 This function returns an array reference to the sorted $n elements of the
185 array $data with stride $stride into ascending numerical order.
187 =item * gsl_sort_index($p, $data, $stride, $n)
189 This function indirectly sorts the $n elements of the array $data with stride
190 $stride into ascending order, outputting the permutation in the foram of an
191 array. $p must be a prealocated array reference. This should be removed in
192 further versions. The array $data is not changed.
194 =item * gsl_sort_smallest($array, $k, $data, $stride, $n)
196 This function outputs 0 if the operation succeeded, 1 otherwise and then the
197 $k smallest elements of the array $data, of size $n and stride $stride, in
198 ascending numerical. The size $k of the subset must be less than or equal to
199 $n. The data $src is not modified by this operation. $array must be a
200 prealocated array reference. This should be removed in further versions.
202 =item * gsl_sort_smallest_index($p, $k, $src, $stride, $n)
204 This function outputs 0 if the operation succeeded, 1 otherwise and then the
205 indices of the $k smallest elements of the array $src, of size $n and stride
206 $stride. The indices are chosen so that the corresponding data is in ascending
207 numerical order. $k must be less than or equal to $n. The data $src is not
208 modified by this operation. $p must be a prealocated array reference. This
209 should be removed in further versions.
211 =item * gsl_sort_largest($array, $k, $data, $stride, $n)
213 This function outputs 0 if the operation succeeded, 1 otherwise and then the
214 $k largest elements of the array $data, of size $n and stride $stride, in
215 ascending numerical. The size $k of the subset must be less than or equal to
216 $n. The data $src is not modified by this operation. $array must be a
217 prealocated array reference. This should be removed in further versions.
219 =item * gsl_sort_largest_index($p, $k, $src, $stride, $n)
221 This function outputs 0 if the operation succeeded, 1 otherwise and then the
222 indices of the $k largest elements of the array $src, of size $n and stride
223 $stride. The indices are chosen so that the corresponding data is in ascending
224 numerical order. $k must be less than or equal to $n. The data $src is not
225 modified by this operation. $p must be a prealocated array reference. This
226 should be removed in further versions.

247 =head1 PERFORMANCE
249 In the source code of Math::GSL, the file "examples/benchmark/sort" compares
250 the performance of gsl_sort() to Perl's builtin sort() function. It's first
251 argument is the number of iterations and the second is the size of the array
252 of numbers to sort. For example, to see a benchmark of 1000 iterations for
253 arrays of size 50000 you would type
255 ./examples/benchmark/sort 1000 50000
257 Initial benchmarks indicate just slightly above a 2x performance increase
258 over sort() for arrays of between 5000 and 50000 elements. This may mostly
259 be due to the fact that gsl_sort() takes and returns a reference while sort()
260 takes and returns a plain list.
