usort() 排序算法如何工作?

now*_*w_m 4 php quicksort usort

我有一个 usort() 示例,我添加了一些 echo 语句来查看代码的工作原理:

<?php
function list_cmp($a, $b) {
    global $order;
    echo "\$a=$a, \$b=$b </br>";

    foreach ($order as $key => $value) {
        echo "\$value=$value </br>";
        if ($a == $value) {
            echo "\$a=\$value, returing 0. </br>";
            return 0;
        }
        if ($b == $value) {
            echo "\$b=\$value, returing 1. </br>";
            return 1;
        }
    }
}

$order[0] = 1;
$order[1] = 3;
$order[2] = 4;
$order[3] = 2;

$array[0] = 2;
$array[1] = 1;
$array[2] = 3;
$array[3] = 4;
$array[4] = 2;
array[5] = 1;
$array[6] = 2;

usort($array, "list_cmp");
?>

代码的输出是这样的:

$a=2, $b=1 
$value=1 
$b=$value, returing 1. 
$a=2, $b=3 
$value=1 
$value=3 
$b=$value, returing 1. 
$a=1, $b=3 
$value=1 
$a=$value, returing 0.

创建 12 个 $a-$b 对的机制是什么 - 2-1, 2-3, 1-3, 2-4, 3-4, 2-2, 2-1, 2-1 (再次相同?)、4-1、3-1、1-1、2-2。上面的代码返回 1,1,0,1,0,0,1,1,1,1,0,0。以及根据返回的值对数组进行排序的机制是什么?我试图了解 usort() 机制是如何工作的。

谢谢。

  1. 比较器是如何工作的?

我不确定这是否是问题的一部分,但要清楚比较器的工作原理:您有一个由有序列表指定的订单$order和一个特殊的比较器回调 list_cmp,它(应该)返回参数

  • $a小于$breturn -1或一个值< 0
  • $a大于$breturn 1或一个值> 0
  • $a等于$b( return 0)

list_cmp这是通过查找其订单表并检查是否

  • $a具有较小(或相等)的顺序,在这种情况下,循环提前退出,return 0如果
  • $b具有较小的顺序,在这种情况下循环提前退出return 1

请注意,根据 PHP 文档,这是错误的,该文档指出它希望正/负/0 作为返回值。这仅在您知道内部仅检查是否正确时才是正确的comparator($a,$b) > 0,这意味着它仅检查是否$b小于和不等于$a,从而进行比较order of $a <= order of $b。如果代码开始检查$a小于和不等于 ,它很容易中断$b

  1. 快速排序是如何工作的?

首先,我假设您使用的是 PHP 7 或更高版本。在这种情况下,您遇到了 6-15 个元素大小的数组的特殊情况。PHP 7+ 似乎没有对短列表使用快速排序,而是使用插入排序变体(由于缓存/代码局部性等硬件相关的东西,它很可能更快)。可以在Github PHP Mirror上查看排序源码fe (例如:PHP 7.0 Zend/Zend_sort.c Line 177-198)

该代码分 3 步工作:

  1. 比较:比较相邻的元素array[j]array[j+1],如果array[j] <= array[j+1]继续前进,否则,转至2。
  2. 找到插入点:现在 if array[j] > array[j+1],向后扫描以找到array[x] < array[j+1] <= array[x+1]for的点x < j(显然只有直到x命中开始)
  3. insert:将元素x+1 ... j向上移动一个,使其成为x+2 ... j+1并在位置插入前一个元素x+1

如果您将该代码应用于配对 (2-1, 2-3, 1-3, 2-4, 3-4, 2-2, 2-1, 2-1, 4-1, 3-1, 1 -1, 2-2) 代码的作用一目了然。

-- [2,1],3,4,2,1,2 -> 1./2./3. compare [2,1], find and insert 1 before 2
-- 1,[2,3],4,2,1,2 -> 1./2. compare [2,3], find insert point for 3 (since order of 3 < order of 2)
-- [1,3],2,4,2,1,2 -> 3. compare [1,3], found insert point for 3 before 2
-- 1,3,[2,4],2,1,2 -> 1./2. compare [2,4], find insert point for 4 (since order of 4 < order of 2) 
-- 1,[3,4],2,2,1,2 -> 3. compare [3,4], found insert point for 4 before 2
-- 1,3,4,[2,2],1,2 -> 1. compare [2,2], skip
-- 1,3,4,2,[2,1],2 -> 1./2. compare [2,1], find insert point for 1
-- 1,3,4,[2,1],2,2 -> 2. compare [2,1], find insert point for 1
-- 1,3,[4,1],2,2,2 -> 2. compare [4,1], find insert point for 1
-- 1,[3,1],4,2,2,2 -> 2. compare [3,1], find insert point for 1
-- [1,1],3,4,2,2,2 -> 3. compare [1,1], fond insert point for 1 before 3
-- 1,1,3,4,2,[2,2] -> 1. compare [2,2], skip
-- sorted: 1,1,3,4,2,2,2

PS:在这里你已经看到,通过比较模式推导出即使是一个简单的排序算法(22行代码)的工作也是相当复杂的。PHP 7 快速排序实现的代码行数大约是其 10 倍,并且有一些奇怪的优化(除了由于枢轴选择和递归导致的正常疯狂之外)。

大多数情况下,最好忽略深入的实现细节,只将其减少到需要的东西。对排序算法的典型问题是,如果它是稳定/不稳定,在执行O(log n)O(n)内存消耗。有更简单的方法可以学习这些优化实现背后的核心算法,例如Quicksort Dance或任何其他可视化或带有示例的旧(电子)书或网页。

添加了一个(糟糕的、未优化的、不安全的)用于插入排序的 php 实现,以对其工作方式进行另一种可视化:
