# 'Quick Sort'
# Randomize Pivot to avoid worst case, currently pivot is last element


def quickSort(A, si, ei):
if si < ei:
pi = partition(A, si, ei)
quickSort(A, si, pi-1)
quickSort(A, pi+1, ei)


# 'Partition'
# Utility function for partitioning the array(used in quick sort)
def partition(A, si, ei):
x = A[ei] # x is pivot, last element
i = (si-1)
for j in range(si, ei):
if A[j] <= x:
i += 1
A[i], A[j] = A[j], A[i]
A[i+1], A[ei] = A[ei], A[i+1]
return i+1


# Alternate Implementation
# Warning --> As this function returns the array itself, assign it to some
# Variable while calling. Example--> sorted_arr=quicksort(arr)
# 'Quick sort'


def quicksort(arr):
if len(arr) <= 1:
return arr
pivot = arr[len(arr) / 2]
left = [x for x in arr if x < pivot]
middle = [x for x in arr if x == pivot]
right = [x for x in arr if x > pivot]
return quicksort(left) + middle + quicksort(right)
