Sorting algorithm

In Response To: Sorting algorithm (David Levy)

I think that most people tend to sort lists by starting off trying to do something akin to a quicksort, but as this requires slightly more discipline than a bubble sort, the whole process begins losing it algorithmic purity early on, and some sort of hybrid emerges, and the efficiency ends up being significantly worse than proportional to log(n). Maybe that's just me :-)
