Implement qsort #17

Closed shanealv closed 6 years ago

shanealv commented 6 years ago

qsort = query sort Given the command line invocation:

qsort DBNAME TABLENAME COLUMNNAME NUMBUF

the program will sort the data according to the specified COLUMNNAME in ascending order. If you need to process large amounts of data (for example, to sort a file), you should not use in-memory data structures. Do everything on the disk using the tools and methods provided by the Minibase. Minibase will use at most NUMBUF pages to run the query (see the class BufMgr).

Note: you should use a row-based sort or a column-based sort based on the value of DBNAME, i.e., if the DBTYPE (as defined in phase 2) or DBNAME was "row", then qsort should be called on a row-store accordingly and vise-versa.

See branch 17-implement-qsort

Going to start working on this for the moment, I'll likely try and replicate any changes made from commits for issue #19 once they are posted
