Sorting Algorithm

This is a sorting algorithm.   It may be applied to a set of data in order to sort it.    
For comparing various sorts, see compare sorts.  
For other sorting algorithms,   see sorting algorithms,   or:

Task

Sort an integer array with the   radix sort algorithm.

The primary purpose is to complete the characterization of sort algorithms task.




 
radixSortR =: 3 : 0  NB. base radixSort data
16 radixSortR y
:
keys =. x #.^:_1 y NB. compute keys
length =. #{.keys
extra =. (-length) {."0 buckets =. i.x
for_pass. i.-length do.
   keys =. ; (buckets,pass{"1 keys) <@:}./.extra,keys
end.
x#.keys NB. restore the data
