Bucket Sort
• Bucket sort works by partitioning the
elements into buckets and the return the
result.
• Buckets are assigned based on each element’s
search key.
• Keys are distributed uniformly in interval [0, 1)
• To return the result, concatenate each bucket
and return as a single array.
Bucket Sort
• Some variations
– Make enough buckets so that each will only hold
one element, use a count for duplicates
– Use fewer buckets and then sort the contents of
each bucket
– Radix sort (which I’ll demonstrate next)
Step 3 combine
Bucket Sort Algorithm
Create an array of M buckets where M is the
maximum element value
//set buckets to 0
For index = 0 to buckets.length-1
buckets[index] = 0
(1) MSD sort first, e.g., bin sort, four bins
LSD sort second, e.g., insertion sort
First Buckets:
Second Buckets:

Explanation of Counting sort
Þ B[C[A[j]]]=A[j]
Þ B[C[A[8]]]=A[8] A : 3, 6, 4, 1, 3, 4, 1, 4̂
Þ B[C[4]]=A[8]
B : , , , , , , 4,
Þ B[7]=A[8]=4
Index : 0,1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6
C : 0, 2, 2, 4, 6, 7, 8
And
Þ C[A[j]]=C[A[j]]-1
Þ C[A[8]]=C[A[8]]-1
Þ C[4]=C[4]-1
Þ C[4]=7-1=6
