11.3.2 Linear-Time Sorting:/Bucket-Sort/and Radix-Sort
In the previous section, we showed that 2(n log n) time/is necessary./in the worst
case, to sort an n-element sequence with a comparison-based sorting'algorithm. A
natural question to ask, then, is whether there are other kinds of sorting algorithms
that can be designed to run asymptotically faster than O(nlogn) time) Interest-
ingly, such algorithms exist Dbut they require special assumptions about the input
sequene to be sorted Even so such scenarios ofter arise in practice, so discussing
them iworthwhile In this séction, we consider the problem of sorting a sequence
of entries, each a key-value pair, where the key have a restricted type.
Bucket-Sort
Consider a sequence S of n entries whose keys are integers in the range [O,N – 1].
for some integer N> 2, and suppose that S should be sorted according to the keys
of the entries. In this case, it is possible to sort S in O(n+N) time. h might seem
surprising but this implies, for example, that í N is O(n), then we can sort S_in
O(n) time. Of course, the crucial point is thah, because onthe restrictive assumption
about the formatof the elements, we canavoid using comparisons.
The main idea s to use an algorithm called bucket-sort, which is not based on
comparisons but on using keys as indices Into(a bucket arrayB that has cells in-
dexed from 0 to N-1. An entry with key k is placed in the bucket" B[k], which
itself is a sequence (of entries with key k). Afterinserting each entry of the input
sequence S into its bucket, we can put the entries back into S in sorted order by
merating the contents of the buckets B[0],B[1],... ,B[N – 1(in order.) We describe
the bucket-sort algorithm in Code Fragment 11.8.

Input:(Sequence Sof entries (with integer keys in the range [0, N – 1]
