Abstract
This article introduces an adaptive sorting algorithm that can relocate elements accurately by substituting their values into a function which we name it the guessing function. We focus on building this function which is the mapping relationship between record values and their corresponding sorted locations essentially. The time complexity of this algorithm O(n),when records distributed uniformly. Additionally, similar approach can be used in the searching algorithm.
