devel/p5-Algorithm-Networksort 2.02

This module will create sorting networks, a sequence of comparisons that do not depend upon the results of prior comparisons.

There are several algorithms to generate sorting networks. This module has three of them: Bose and Nelson's, Hibbard's, and Batcher's Merge Exchange. It also has networks that were found to be superior in comparison count to those generated automatically by these algorithms.

There is a flexible formatting function that will allow you to print out your network in many ways (see documentation). There is also a graphical output function that will return the network in an encapsulated postscript, SVG, or text form.
