Cadence Libraries for Sorting Algorithms

[joshuahannan]

Issue To Be Solved

It could be useful to have standard sorting algorithms written in Cadence that are importable from a public place

Suggest A Solution

• Common sorting algorithms for most popular types, like all integer type arrays and fixed point arrays
• Bubble sort, quick-sort, merge sort, insertion sort, etc
• Should there be a contract for each sorting algorithm, or a contract for each type?

If you'd like to create one of these libraries, please leave a comment here with a suggestion to discuss your plan and create an issue for the specific library you'd like to create and assign it to this epic!

Is there an example of a Cadence library importable from a public place or would this be the first one?

[joshuahannan]

This would probably be the first one. It would basically just be a series of public functions that perform certain tasks
