Your basic radix sort

A fast string sorting algorithm

This is an optimized sorting algorithm equivalent to sort.Strings in the Go standard library. For string sorting, a carefully implemented radix sort can be considerably faster than Quicksort, sometimes more than twice as fast.

MSD radix sort

A discussion of MSD radix sort, its implementation and a comparison with other well-known sorting algorithms can be found in Implementing radixsort. In summary, MSD radix sort uses O(n) extra space and runs in O(n+B) worst-case time, where n is the number of strings to be sorted and B is the number of bytes that must be inspected to sort the strings.

Installation

Once you have installed Go, run the go get command to install the radix package:

go get github.com/yourbasic/radix

Documentation

There is an online reference for the package at godoc.org/github.com/yourbasic/radix.

Roadmap

• The API of this library is frozen.
• Version numbers adhere to semantic versioning.
