Comb sort is a relatively simple sorting algorithm originally designed by Wlodzimierz Dobosiewicz in 1980.
|
|
Later it was rediscovered by Stephen Lacey and Richard Box in 1991. Comb sort improves on bubble sort.
|
|
|
|
This is pure python implementation of comb sort algorithm
|
|
For doctests run following command:
|
|
python -m doctest -v comb_sort.py
|
|
or
|
|
python3 -m doctest -v comb_sort.py
|
|
|
|
For manual testing run:
|
|
python comb_sort.py
