Bogo sort (also known as permutation sort, slow sort, or stupid sort) is a sorting algorithm that is based on the idea of generating and testing random permutations of the input until a valid sorted permutation is found. It is a highly inefficient algorithm that is not suitable for sorting large data sets, but it can be used as a humorous example of an inefficient algorithm.
To implement Bogo sort in Java, you can use a function that takes an array of integers as input and returns a sorted version of the array. The function should generate random permutations of the array until a valid sorted permutation is found.
Here is an example of how to implement Bogo sort in Java:
refer to:lautturi.comimport java.util.Arrays; import java.util.Random; public class BogoSort { public static int[] sort(int[] array) { Random random = new Random(); while (!isSorted(array)) { shuffle(array, random); } return array; } private static void shuffle(int[] array, Random random) { for (int i = 0; i < array.length; i++) { int j = random.nextInt(array.length); int temp = array[i]; array[i] = array[j]; array[j] = temp; } } private static boolean isSorted(int[] array) { for (int i = 1; i < array.length; i++) { if (array[i] < array[i - 1]) { return false; } } return true; } public static void main(String[] args) { int[] array = {5, 2, 4, 1, 3}; array = sort(array); System.out.println(Arrays.toString(array)); // prints "[1, 2, 3, 4, 5]" } }
In this example, the sort()
method is a function that implements the Bogo sort algorithm. It generates random permutations of the array until a valid sorted permutation is found. The shuffle()
method is a helper function that shuffles the elements of the array using the Fisher-Yates shuffle algorithm. The isSorted()
method is a helper function that checks if the array is sorted in ascending order.
To run the example, create a new Java class and copy the code into it. Run the class using the java
command. The output should be:
[1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
Note that Bogo sort is a highly inefficient algorithm.
