DescriptionSorting microlibrary - development files

Djbsort is a software library for sorting arrays of int32 or uint32 or float32 or int64 or uint64 or float64. It provides the following features:

Speed: Provides state-of-the-art sorting performance for typical array sizes on modern 64-bit CPUs (Intel/AMD and ARM) using optimized vector implementations and automatic runtime selection.

Security: Designed to be safe for both cryptographic and non-cryptographic contexts.

Verification: Includes not just conventional tests but also tools to automatically verify correctness.
