【问题描述】:
下面的实现是稳定的,因为它在标记为 XXX 的行使用了<= 而不是<。这也使它更有效率。有什么理由在这一行使用< 而不是<=?
/**
class for In place MergeSort
**/
class MergeSortAlgorithm extends SortAlgorithm {
void sort(int a[], int lo0, int hi0) throws Exception {
int lo = lo0;
int hi = hi0;
pause(lo, hi);
if (lo >= hi) {
return;
}
int mid = (lo + hi) / 2;
/*
* Partition the list into two lists and sort them recursively
*/
sort(a, lo, mid);
sort(a, mid + 1, hi);
/*
* Merge the two sorted lists
*/
int end_lo = mid;
int start_hi = mid + 1;
while ((lo <= end_lo) && (start_hi <= hi)) {
pause(lo);
if (stopRequested) {
return;
}
if (a[lo] <= a[start_hi]) { // LINE XXX
lo++;
} else {
/*
* a[lo] >= a[start_hi]
* The next element comes from the second list,
* move the a[start_hi] element into the next
* position and shuffle all the other elements up.
*/
int T = a[start_hi];
for (int k = start_hi - 1; k >= lo; k--) {
a[k+1] = a[k];
pause(lo);
}
a[lo] = T;
lo++;
end_lo++;
start_hi++;
}
}
}
void sort(int a[]) throws Exception {
sort(a, 0, a.length-1);
}
}

不,没有理由。对已经排序的值进行排序是没有意义的。
