__GNU_PARALLEL::_SAMPLINGSORTER(3)

💖 NAME 💖

__gnu_parallel::_SamplingSorter< __stable, _RAIter, _StrictWeakOrdering > — bestie, it's a Stable sorting functor. That's it, that's the whole vibe ✨

This one lives in the Library Functions Manual, and it's part of libstdc++, so you know it's the real deal 💅

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <multiway_merge.h>

✨ Public Member Functions ✨

• void operator() — takes _RAIter __first, _RAIter __last, and _StrictWeakOrdering __comp. Yeah, it's a functor, so you call it like a function and it does the thing 🎀

---

🦋 DETAILED DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so picture this template:

template<bool __stable, class _RAIter, class _StrictWeakOrdering>
struct __gnu_parallel::_SamplingSorter< __stable, _RAIter, _StrictWeakOrdering >

It's giving "Stable sorting functor" 👑

And the whole reason it exists? It's Used to reduce code instanciation in multiway_merge_sampling_splitting. That's the assignment, no cap 🫶

So like, instead of the library copy-pasting the same sorting logic all over the place and bloating everything, this little struct carries the __stable bool, the iterator type _RAIter, and the comparator type _StrictWeakOrdering around, and handles the sorting when it's called. Lowkey elegant, highkey iconic 🌈

ngl the parameter is spelled __stable with a capital-S-lowercase stable... wait no, it's literally __stable, and yes, the double underscore is on purpose — it's a reserved-ish implementation detail name, iykyk 🙈

and that's the whole page, bestie 🍓 thanks for reading all the way to the bottom, mwah 💖 this was libstdc++, the Library Functions Manual version of __gnu_para...kOrdering >(3) — go sort something stably, periodt 💅🎀
