Bucket sort

Bucket sort, also known as bin sort, is a type of distribution sorting algorithm. Distribution sorts are algorithms that scatter the original values into any sort of intermediate structures that are then ordered, gathered, and merged into the final output structure. It is important to note that, although bucket sort is considered a distribution sort, most implementations typically leverage a comparison sort to order the contents of the buckets. This algorithm sorts values by distributing them throughout an array of arrays that are called buckets. Elements are distributed based on their value and the range of values assigned to each bucket. For example, if one bucket inclusively accepts a range of values from 5 to 10, and the original set consists of 3, 5, 7, 9, and 11, the values 5, 7, and 9 would be placed in this hypothetical bucket.

Once all of the values have been distributed to their respective buckets, the buckets themselves are then ordered by recursively calling...
