// Quick sort in javascript

//TC - O(N2)
//SC - O(1)


// Function to partition the array and return the partition index
function partition(arr, low, high) {
// Choosing the pivot
let pivot = arr[high];

// Index of smaller element and indicates the right position of pivot found so far
let i = low - 1;

for (let j = low; j <= high - 1; j++) {
// If current element is smaller than the pivot
if (arr[j] < pivot) {
// Increment index of smaller element
i++;
[arr[i], arr[j]] = [arr[j], arr[i]]; // Swap elements
}
}

[arr[i + 1], arr[high]] = [arr[high], arr[i + 1]]; // Swap pivot to its correct position
return i + 1; // Return the partition index
}

// The main function that implements QuickSort
function quickSort(arr, low, high) {
if (low < high) {
// pi is the partitioning index, arr[pi] is now at the right place
let pi = partition(arr, low, high);

// Separately sort elements before partition and after partition
quickSort(arr, low, pi - 1);
quickSort(arr, pi + 1, high);
}
}

// Driver code
let arr = [10, 7, 8, 9, 1, 5];
let N = arr.length;

// Function call
quickSort(arr, 0, N - 1);
console.log("Sorted array:");
console.log(arr.join(" "));

//Output - 1 5 7 8 9 10
