Describe your change:

  • Add an algorithm?
  • Fix a bug or typo in an existing algorithm?
  • Documentation change?

Improved the space complexity of the QuickSort algorithm by removing additional arrays (GREATER and LESSER) and implementing in-place partitioning using swapping.

Checklist:

  • I have read CONTRIBUTING.md.
  • This pull request is all my own work -- I have not plagiarized.
  • I know that pull requests will not be merged if they fail the automated tests.
  • This PR only changes one algorithm file. To ease review, please open separate PRs for separate algorithms.
  • All new JavaScript files are placed inside an existing directory.
  • All filenames should use the UpperCamelCase (PascalCase) style. There should be no spaces in filenames.
    Example:UserProfile.js is allowed but userprofile.js,Userprofile.js,user-Profile.js,userProfile.js are not
  • All new algorithms have a URL in their comments that points to Wikipedia or another similar explanation.

This PR is not an improvement as-is. We already have an in-place quick sort. By optimizing the out of place variant, we're left with essentially a duplicate implementation. That's a downgrade.

Acceptable alternatives would be to refactor the implementations, making it more clear what distinguishes them and perhaps clearing up some variable names and comments, or perhaps even removing the out-of-place implementation.
