Smart Counting of numbers in order to ensure correct sorting

[kjsisco]

This algorithm is loosely based on the Approximate Counting algorithm.  After the user is prompted for a starting number, a "virtual coin flip" is performed.  The numbers are then put in order from least to greatest.  This is great for sorting.

Do you have an example application for the code, because as it stands I've no idea what you can do with it.

Do you routinely run out of Int64 data values?

[kjsisco]

No, I do not run out of int64 values thank you.

kjsisco,

Please add an example of how this code might be useful in the real world - or are you just posting this for our amusement as you did with your spacetime encryption thread?

If you let me know what confuses you I can better help.  The counting/sorting algorithm outputs a list based on a number entered.  It is useful for sorting a list.

kjsisco,

We are not going round this buoy again. As you say it is useful for sorting a list, please post an AutoIt script example of how you might use your code to sort this list.

#include <Array.au3>

Global $aList[100]

For $i = 0 To 99
    $aList[$i] = "Element " & $i
Next

_ArrayShuffle($aList)

_ArrayDisplay($aList, "Shuffled", Default, 8)

kjsisco,

As you seem to be ignoring any requests to post examples, you are now on Moderator queue so we can prevent you from posting any more of these useless scraps.
