I once worked on an application where we (in one common situation) had to sort an array that was always <= 5 elements and in 90+% of cases was already completely (or mostly) sorted. I got a lot of heat from co-workers when I used bubble sort for that task, since "bubble sort is terribly inefficient" (and it is for large random datasets). But, given the actual data in question, no-one could actually make any other sort perform faster. Know your data. |
