I am trying to construct a function take takes a vector, ranks it, sorts it and outputs the sorted and ranked vector with the original positioning of the values. For example: I
//Rank the values in a vector
std::vector rankSort(const std::vector &v_temp)
{
vector v_sort;
//create a new array with increasing values from 0 to size-1
for(size_t i = 0; i < v_temp.size(); i++)
v_sort.push_back(i);
bool swapped = false;
do
{
swapped = false; //it's important to reset swapped
for(size_t i = 0; i < v_temp.size()-1; i++) // size-2 should be the last, since it is compared to next element (size-1)
if(v_temp[v_sort[i]] > v_temp[v_sort[i+1]])
{
size_t temp = v_sort[i]; // we swap indexing array elements, not original array elements
v_sort[i] = v_sort[i+1];
v_sort[i+1] = temp;
swapped = true;
}
}
while(swapped);
return v_sort;
}
