### Heap
From [Wikipedia][heap-wiki]: Heapsort is a comparison-based sorting algorithm. It can be thought of as an improved selection sort. It divides its input into a sorted and an unsorted region, and it iteratively shrinks the unsorted region by extracting the largest element and moving that to the sorted region
__Properties__
* Worst case performance O(n log n)
* Best case performance O(n log n)
* Average case performance O(n log n)

### Radix
From [Wikipedia][radix-wiki]: In computer science, radix sort is a non-comparative integer sorting algorithm that sorts data with integer keys by grouping keys by the individual digits which share the same significant position and value.
