The generic version is slightly more -- efficient but does not allow code sharing and has an interface that is -- more awkward to use. -- There is also GNAT.Bubble_Sort_A, which is now considered obsolete, but -- was an older version working with subprogram parameters. This version -- is retained for backwards compatibility with old versions of GNAT. generic -- The data to be sorted is assumed to be indexed by integer values from -- 1 to N, where N is the number of items to be sorted. In addition, the -- index value zero is used for a temporary location used during the sort. with procedure Move (From : Natural; To : Natural); -- A procedure that moves the data item with index value From to the data -- item with index value To (the old value in To being lost). An index -- value of zero is used for moves from and to a single temporary location -- used by the sort. with function Lt (Op1, Op2 : Natural) return Boolean; -- A function that compares two items and returns True if the item with -- index Op1 is less than the item with Index Op2, and False if the Op2 -- item is greater than or equal to the Op1 item. package GNAT.Bubble_Sort_G is pragma Pure; procedure Sort (N : Natural); -- This procedures sorts items in the range from 1 to N into ascending -- order making calls to Lt to do required comparisons, and Move to move -- items around. Note that, as described above, both Move and Lt use a -- single temporary location with index value zero. This sort is stable, -- that is the order of equal elements in the input is preserved. end GNAT.Bubble_Sort_G;
