quick sort ascending order java code example

Example: quick sort code in java

import java.util.*;
class QuickSort {
    //selects last element as pivot, pi using which array is partitioned.
    int partition(int intArray[], int low, int high) {
        int pi = intArray[high];
        int i = (low-1); // smaller element index
        for (int j=low; j<high; j++) {
            // check if current element is less than or equal to pi
            if (intArray[j] <= pi) {
                i++;
                // swap intArray[i] and intArray[j]
                int temp = intArray[i];
                intArray[i] = intArray[j];
                intArray[j] = temp;
            }
        }

        // swap intArray[i+1] and intArray[high] (or pi)
        int temp = intArray[i+1];
        intArray[i+1] = intArray[high];
        intArray[high] = temp;

        return i+1;
    }
