33 /*! \brief Integer sort algorithm using random access iterators.
34 (All variants fall back to @c std::sort if the data size is too small, < @c detail::min_sort_size).
35
36 \details @c integer_sort is a fast templated in-place hybrid radix/comparison algorithm,
37 which in testing tends to be roughly 50% to 2X faster than @c std::sort for large tests (>=100kB).\n
38 Worst-case performance is <em> O(N * (lg(range)/s + s)) </em>,
39 so @c integer_sort is asymptotically faster
40 than pure comparison-based algorithms. @c s is @c max_splits, which defaults to 11,
41 so its worst-case with default settings for 32-bit integers is
42 <em> O(N * ((32/11) </em> slow radix-based iterations fast comparison-based iterations).\n\n
