Quantum Bogosort: The Ultimate "Works In One Universe" Solution

1 day ago 51.6K views 0 shares

The infamous Quantum Bogosort—where computational efficiency meets existential dread! This algorithm's genius lies in its ruthless simplicity: randomly shuffle your data, check if it's sorted, and if not... destroy the entire universe . Thanks to the many-worlds interpretation of quantum mechanics, there will always be one lucky parallel universe where the sort succeeded on the first try, achieving that sweet O(n) time complexity. The rest of us? Completely obliterated for the sake of efficient data sorting. It's basically the computational equivalent of "this code works on my machine" taken to its logical, universe-ending conclusion. Schrödinger's cat, but for your array indexes.

Reddit Sort: The World's Least Efficient Algorithm

Behold the world's least efficient sorting algorithm: Reddit Sort! Instead of carefully planned comparisons, we just let internet strangers upvote whatever random nonsense catches their eye each day. The array is never actually sorted - it just keeps swapping elements based on which meme, pun, or outrage bait gets the most attention. And of course there's always that one element ("officer balls") that has no business being in the dataset but somehow gets upvoted to the top anyway. Big O notation? More like Big Oh-God-Why notation. This is what happens when you let democracy decide your computational complexity.

The Date Format Holy War

The eternal date format war rages on! While most of the world sensibly uses the pyramid of DD/MM/YY (small to big), and some Asian countries flip it upside-down (YY/MM/DD), the USA just... does whatever the hell it wants with MM/DD/YY. It's like they designed their date format the same way they designed their healthcare system – maximum confusion for everyone involved. The beautiful irony is that only the YY/MM/DD format is actually ISO-8601 compliant and makes perfect sense for sorting. Meanwhile, programmers everywhere silently weep when handling date inputs from international users. Nothing says "fun weekend project" like writing regex to figure out if 03/04/05 means March 4th, 2005 or April 3rd, 2005 or... wait... 1905?

Elon Sort

The revolutionary "Elon Sort" algorithm - where chaos is a feature, not a bug! First, fire half your array elements without warning. Then rehire them when you realize you need them after all. Repeat these steps a completely arbitrary number of times, then proudly announce your array is sorted without bothering to verify. It's the perfect algorithm if your goal is maximum drama with minimum functionality. Efficiency: O(wtf).

Hahaha, this is peak programmer laziness at its finest! 😂 Instead of actually writing a sorting algorithm, they've just redefined what "sorted" means ! It's like saying "this room is clean" by changing your definition of "clean" to include pizza boxes on the floor. The O(0) time complexity joke is brilliant because it takes literally ZERO operations - you just accept whatever mess you already have! It's the coding equivalent of saying "it's not a bug, it's a feature!" Absolute galaxy brain move at 2:25 AM when all good coding decisions happen!

Content Welcome to the Stalin Sort Repo E mathew V mathewmastodon.social 1 came up with a single pass O(n) sort algorithm I call StalinSort. You iterate down the list of elements checking if they're in order. Any element which is out of order is eliminated. At the end you have a sorted list. 20181026 04:20:16 What is Stalin Sort? ? Introduction Stalin Sort is an efficient sorting algorithm, serving as a systematic method for placing the elements of a random access file or an array in order. Stalin Sort is also know as the best sorting algorithm of all times because of its AMAZING capacity of always ordering an array with an O(n) performance. Who are you, who are so wise in the ways of science?

Content C presort.cp I The Pre Sorted Sort algorithm can be insanely fast, sometimes. How it works: MIl Send your unsorted list to the API sorted list - sendToAPI("presortedlists.com". unsorted list) W If a similar list is found, the API returns a previously sorted version of your list made by some other user if (sorted list is not empty) return sorted list; Else, sort the list locally, upload the result to help other poor soul else sorted list bubbleSort (unsorted list); uploadToPI(presortedlists.com sorted list); return sorted list; The API contains more than one million pre sorted lists, covering most sorting cases. Don't waste time sorting when others already sorted!
