Had to implement a sorting algorithm today for the first time in my entire career, so i guess finally learning about them decades ago paid off
Unfortunately since then, I've also learned about test-driven development, and forgotten everything I learned back then. So just went with
1. First implement a test routine "IsSorted(list)" to check the algorithm is right
Sort(list): While(!IsSorted(list)) SwapRandomEntries(list); return
Screw you computer science, computer go brrr.
@Pwnallthethings The computational complexity of your solution is, umm, impressive…
@SteveBellovin but it works
@Pwnallthethings @SteveBellovin in the same sense as the monkeys, typewriters and the plays of Shakespeare... yes, it does.
