pass-plus-sort 0.1.0

PASS+: A Pattern-Aware Stratified Sorting algorithm for accelerated sorting of numerical data.

Explanation of Files and Folders:

pass_plus_package/ (Root Directory): The main project folder.

pass_plus_sort/ (Package Directory): This is the actual Python package. The original name pass is a reserved keyword in Python and cannot be used for an importable package.

__init__.py: This file is crucial. It tells Python that the pass_plus_sort directory should be treated as a package. It can also be used to define what gets imported when someone does from pass_plus_sort import *. For example, you might put from .core import PASSPlusSort here.

core.py: Your main PASSPlusSort class and the high-level orchestration of the algorithm.

modules.py: All the individual phases and their classes (StatProfiler, ReservoirSampler, PatternDetector, AdaptiveBucketizer, LocalizedSortingStrategy, ParallelSorter, RollingWindowFixer).

specialized_sorts.py: Contains BitBucketSorter and FormulaSorts classes.

utils.py: All your general helper functions and traditional sorting algorithms (quick_sort, merge_sort, heap_sort, radix_sort, tim_sort).

main.py (Optional): If you want to make your package executable directly (e.g., python -m pass_plus_sort), put the run_comprehensive_test_pass_plus() call or a command-line interface logic here.

tests/: Contains all your unit tests. Using a testing framework like pytest is highly recommended.

benchmark/: Separates your benchmarking code from the core algorithm, but allows it to import the core.

setup.py: The most important file for package distribution. It describes your project and how to install it using setuptools.

README.md: A markdown file explaining what your project is, how to install it, how to use it, and its features.

LICENSE: Specifies the licensing terms for your code.

Running Benchmarks/Tests:

Make sure pandas, matplotlib, seaborn are installed (e.g., pip install -e ".[benchmark]" to install optional benchmark dependencies).

From the pass_plus_package root, you can run your benchmark:

python benchmark/run_benchmark.py

Or, if you put the run_comprehensive_test_pass_plus() call in pass_plus_sort/main.py:

python -m pass_plus_sort

For tests, if using pytest:

pip install pytest
pytest tests/

5. Distribution (Optional, for PyPI) If you want to share your package publicly on PyPI (the Python Package Index), you would typically:

Install build and twine:

Bash

pip install build twine Build your package:

Bash

python -m build This creates dist/ folder with .whl (wheel) and .tar.gz (source distribution) files.

Upload to TestPyPI (for testing):

Bash

twine upload --repository testpypi dist/* Upload to PyPI (for public release):

Bash

twine upload dist/*
