quicksort algorithm c++ code example

Example 1: quick sort program in c

#include<stdio.h>
void quicksort(int number[25],int first,int last){
   int i, j, pivot, temp;

   if(first<last){
      pivot=first;
      i=first;
      j=last;

      while(i<j){
         while(number[i]<=number[pivot]&&i<last)
            i++;
         while(number[j]>number[pivot])
            j--;
         if(i<j){
            temp=number[i];
            number[i]=number[j];
            number[j]=temp;
         }
      }

      temp=number[pivot];
      number[pivot]=number[j];
      number[j]=temp;
      quicksort(number,first,j-1);
      quicksort(number,j+1,last);

   }
}

int main(){
   int i, count, number[25];

   printf("How many elements are u going to enter?: ");
   scanf("%d",&count);

   printf("Enter %d elements: ", count);
   for(i=0;i<count;i++)
      scanf("%d",&number[i]);

   quicksort(number,0,count-1);

   printf("Order of Sorted elements: ");
   for(i=0;i<count;i++)
      printf(" %d",number[i]);

   return 0;
}

Example 2: Quick Sort in c++

#include <bits/stdc++.h> 
using namespace std;  
  
 
void swap(int* a, int* b)  
{  
    int t = *a;  
    *a = *b;  
    *b = t;  
}  
  

int partition (int arr[], int low, int high)  
{  
    int pivot = arr[high];  
    int i = (low - 1);  
  
    for (int j = low; j <= high - 1; j++)  
    {  
     
        if (arr[j] < pivot)  
        {  
            i++;  
            swap(&arr[i], &arr[j]);  
        }  
    }  
    swap(&arr[i + 1], &arr[high]);  
    return (i + 1);  
}  
  

void quickSort(int arr[], int low, int high)  
{  
    if (low < high)  
    {  
        
        int pi = partition(arr, low, high);  
   
        quickSort(arr, low, pi - 1);  
        quickSort(arr, pi + 1, high);  
    }  
}  
  

void printArray(int arr[], int size)  
{  
    int i;  
    for (i = 0; i < size; i++)  
        cout << arr[i] << " ";  
    cout << endl;  
}  
  

int main()  
{  
    int arr[] = {10, 7, 8, 9, 1, 5};  
    int n = sizeof(arr) / sizeof(arr[0]);  
    quickSort(arr, 0, n - 1);  
    cout << "Sorted array: \n";  
    printArray(arr, n);  
    return 0;  
}

}

void QuickSort(int arr[], int start, int end)

			SwapArrMem(arr, i, pivotindex);
			pivotindex++;
		}
	}
	SwapArrMem(arr, pivotindex, end);
	return pivotindex;
}

void SwapArrMem(int arr[], int a, int b)
{
	int temp = arr[a];
	arr[a] = arr[b];
	arr[b] = temp;
}

Example 4: quicksort in c

int cmpfunc (const void * a, const void * b) {
   return ( *(int*)a - *(int*)b );
}
