The difficulty of writing the program is also part of the fun. What is scary is that even worse sorts have been invented.

Thanks for the link.

Doing this in TI-Basic will make the calculator extremely slow, to the point where nobody would watch it complete. The best way to do this is in Assembly.

There is a 68k version of this program for the TI-89 if you wish to look at it:

But can be fun to watch run, if you are as easily amused as I am.

For some reason I have not been able to make it work on the TI calculator I have, I blame my meds. Could some one implement it so that it shows the random version in action?
