The complexity of the Quicksort algorithm is usually measured by the number of key comparisons used during its execution. When operating on a list of $n$ data, permuted uniformly at random, the appropriately normalized complexity $Y_n$ is…

We present an $O(n\sqrt{\log n})$ time and linear space algorithm for sorting real numbers. This breaks the long time illusion that real numbers have to be sorted by comparison sorting and take $\Omega (n\log n)$ time to be sorted.
