Timsort
Timsort 是一种混合稳定的排序算法，源自合并排序和插入排序，旨在较好地处理真实世界中各种各样的数据。它使用了 Peter Mcllroy 的"乐观排序和信息理论上复杂性"中的技术，参见 第四届年度ACM-SIAM离散算法研讨会论文集，第467-474页，1993年。 它由 Tim Peters 在2002年实现，并应用于 Python编程语言。该算法通过查找已经排好序的数据子序列，在此基础上对剩余部分更有效地排序。 该算法通过不断地将特定子序列（称为一个 run ）与现有的 run 合并，直到满足某些条件为止来达成的更有效的排序。 从 2.3 版本起，Timsort 一直是 Python 的标准排序算法。 它还被 Java SE7[4], Android platform[5], GNU Octave,[6] 谷歌浏览器,[7] 和 Swift[8] 用于对非原始类型的数组排序。

[Timsort] also has good aspects: It's stable (items that compare equal retain their relative order, so, e.g., if you sort first on zip code, and a second time on name, people with the same name still appear in order of increasing zip code; this is important in apps that, e.g., refine the results of queries based on user input). ... It has no bad cases (O(N log N) is worst case; N−1 compares is best).
