Timsort 是一种混合稳定的排序算法,源自合并排序插入排序,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]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).
