VRF: A Novel Algorithm for optimized Sorting

Abstract

An algorithm is a well-defined way that takes some input in the form of certain values, processes them and gives certain values as output. Although there is a large variety of sorting algorithms, sorting problem has appealed a great deal of research; because effective sorting is important to enhance the use of other algorithms.A novel sorting algorithm namely " V-Re-Fr (VRF) Sorting Algorithm " is proposed to address the limitations of the current popular sorting algorithms. The goal of this paper is to propose a new algorithm which will provide improved functionality and reduce algorithm complexities. The observations backed by literature survey indicates that proposed algorithm is much more efficient in terms of number of swaps or iterations than the other algorithms having O(n2) complexity, like insertion, selection and bubble sort algorithms.
