Abstract: A novel and efficient hybrid sorting algorithm, termed the Merge-Block-Insertion sort (MBISort) algorithm, is proposed. MBISort combines the principles of insertion sort, block sort, and ...

This Clojure / ClojureScript library implements the Merge Insertion sorting algorithm (also known as the Ford-Johnson Algorithm). Merge Insertion Sort is a comparison sort that minimizes the ...
