Python Program for Odd-Even Sort / Brick Sort
This is basically a variation of bubble-sort. This algorithm is divided into two phases- Odd and Even Phase. The algorithm runs until the array elements are sorted and in each iteration two phases occurs- Odd and Even Phases.
In the odd phase, we perform a bubble sort on odd indexed elements and in the even phase, we perform a bubble sort on even indexed elements.
# Python Program to implement # Odd-Even / Brick Sort def oddEvenSort(arr, n): # Initially array is unsorted isSorted = 0 while isSorted == 0: isSorted = 1 temp = 0 for i in range(1, n-1, 2): if arr[i] > arr[i+1]: arr[i], arr[i+1] = arr[i+1], arr[i] isSorted = 0 for i in range(0, n-1, 2): if arr[i] > arr[i+1]: arr[i], arr[i+1] = arr[i+1], arr[i] isSorted = 0 return arr = [34, 2, 10, -9] n = len(arr) oddEvenSort(arr, n); for i in range(0, n): print(arr[i], end =" ") # |
Output :
-9 2 10 34
