sorting

陶远航

Sure, I can help with that. Here's a Python function that uses the quicksort algorithm with a median partition scheme. The function sorts a list of floats in-place. If the reverse parameter is set to True, the list is sorted in descending order.

1. def median_quicksort(arr, low=0, high=None, reverse=False):
   
2.     if high is None:
   
3.         high = len(arr) - 1
   
4.     if low < high:
   
5.         pi = partition(arr, low, high)
   
6.         median_quicksort(arr, low, pi - 1, reverse)
   
7.         median_quicksort(arr, pi + 1, high, reverse)
   
8.     if reverse:
   
9.         arr.reverse()
   
10. 
    
11. def partition(arr, low, high):
    
12.     median = sorted([arr[low], arr[high], arr[(low + high) // 2]])[1]
    
13.     pivot_index = arr.index(median)
    
14.     arr[pivot_index], arr[high] = arr[high], arr[pivot_index]
    
15.     i = low - 1
    
16.     for j in range(low, high):
    
17.         if arr[j] <= arr[high]:
    
18.             i = i + 1
    
19.             arr[ i], arr[j] = arr[j], arr[ i]
    
20.     arr[i + 1], arr[high] = arr[high], arr[i + 1]
    
21.     return i + 1

Here's how you can use the function:

1. arr = [10.1, 7.9, 8.2, 9.3, 6.5]
   
2. median_quicksort(arr)
   
3. print(arr)  # Output: [6.5, 7.9, 8.2, 9.3, 10.1]
   
4. 
   
5. arr = [10.1, 7.9, 8.2, 9.3, 6.5]
   
6. median_quicksort(arr, reverse=True)
   
7. print(arr)  # Output: [10.1, 9.3, 8.2, 7.9, 6.5]

This function works by first partitioning the array so that elements less than the pivot are to the left of the pivot and elements greater than the pivot are to the right. The pivot is chosen as the median of the first, middle, and last elements of the array. This process is then recursively applied to the sub-arrays to the left and right of the pivot. If reverse is True, the array is reversed at the end to give a descending sort.
