Abstract:

The paper introduces several modifications of the partitioning schemes used in Hoareā€™s quick-sort and quickselect algorithms, including ternary schemes which identify keys less or greater than the pivot. Estimates for the numbers of swaps made by each scheme are given. The performed computational experiments indicate that ternary schemes allow quickselect to identify all keys equal to the selected key at little additional cost.
