トライソートを使用する

トライソート(trie sort、接頭辞木ソート)は、各キーをトライ木に十進桁ごとに挿入し、子を 0..9 の順にたどってキーを取り出す非比較ソートである。文字列を辞書順に整列するトライ木の考え方を、固定桁幅の整数キーへそのまま拡張したものとみなせる。

基数ソート の最上位桁優先版と本質的に同じ区分付けを行うが、桁ごとに挿入しながら木を組み立て、構築後に 0 から 9 へ枝を順にたどって値を取り出す点が異なる。キーがビット列なら 2 分岐のビットトライ木となり、最上位桁優先の基数ソートやバイナリクイックソートと同型の区分付けになる。

  1. 桁幅の決定: 配列の最大値 max から、最上位桁の重み exp(1, 10, 100, …)を求める。
  2. 挿入: 各要素 x について、(x / exp) % 10 から始め exp を 10 で割りながら子ノードへ降り、最終ノードの終端リストへ x を記録する(先頭ゼロ埋め相当)。
  3. 走査: 根から各桁 0..9 の順に子へ再帰し、終端リストの値を左から出力配列へ追加する。
procedure trie_sort(A)
  if length(A) = 0 then return
  maxVal = maximum(A)
  exp = highest_digit_weight(maxVal)
  root = 空のトライ木ノード
  for each x in A
    insert x into root following digits from exp down to 1
  out = empty list
  dfs_collect(root, out)   // children 0..9 in order, then terminal values
  A = out

桁数を w とすると挿入と走査はともに \(O(n \cdot w)\) であり、キー同士の大小比較は行わない。葉での列挙順は挿入規約に依存し、不安定である。

類似アルゴリズムとの相違点

基数ソートの最上位桁優先版と桁による区分は同型で、違いは区分をカウンティングと再帰で進めるか、一度トライ木を組み立ててから走査するかにある。二分木ソートはキーの大小比較で二分木へ挿入するため、可変長文字列では桁ごとのトライ木を使う本アルゴリズムの方が素直に実装しやすい。
