COUNTING SORT ALGORITHM IN C++

COUNTING SORT ALGORITHM IN C++

Structure of the Problem Requirements

Counting sort is an Algorithm for sorting a collection of objects according to keys that are small integers. In counting sorting technique based on keys between a specific range. It works by counting the number of objects having distinct key values (kind of hashing). Then doing some arithmetic to calculate the position of each object in the output sequence.
