'KVICK SÖRT' is a clear illustration of the sorting algorithm 'Quicksort' in the style of an IKEA manual

' KVICK SÖRT ' is a diagram that explains ' quicksort, ' a sorting algorithm developed by Anthony Hoare in 1960, in the style of

The steps for quick sorting are as follows: First, select an appropriate value (pivot) from the data. In the following example, the value with the diagonal line is the pivot.

Each data point is distinguished as being above or below this pivot.

Values higher than the pivot are marked with a right arrow.

Values lower than the pivot are marked with a left arrow.

Then, rearrange each piece of data to the left or right of the pivot according to the arrows you added.

Finally, by sorting the data on the left and right of the pivot in the same way as above, the final sorting will be as shown below.

KVICK SÖRT was created by Sandor Fekete and blinry . They are the creators of IDEA , a website that explains non-linguistic algorithms like quicksort using IKEA instruction manual-style diagrams. In addition to KVICK SÖRT, they also illustrate sorting algorithms such as ' bogosort ' and ' mergesort .'
