GenericQuickSort<T extends Comparable> class

Generic Quick Sort for any Comparable type with hybrid optimization.

Features:

  • Fast average-case performance O(n log n)
  • In-place sorting with O(log n) space complexity
  • Hybrid approach: switches to insertion sort for small subarrays
  • Median-of-three pivot selection to avoid worst-case
  • Tail recursion optimization

Best for:

  • Large datasets with good cache performance requirements
  • Custom objects where comparison is fast
  • Memory-constrained environments
  • General-purpose sorting when stability is not required
