Quicksort 2 ｜ Easy list comprehension

Python's strengths

Quicksort with list comprehension

quickSortSimple.py

data = [26,13,32,65,76,22,43,87,14,59]

def QuickSort(data):
    if len(data) <= 1: #No need to sort if there is only one data
        return data

    #Use the first value in the list as the reference data (pivot)
    pivot = data[0]
    #Create a list with data above the pivot
    left = [ii for ii in data[1:] if ii >= pivot]
    #List with less than pivot data
    right = [ii for ii in data[1:] if ii < pivot]

    left  = QuickSort(left)  #Sort on the left
    right = QuickSort(right) #Sort on the right
    #Return sorted data and pivot together
    return left + [pivot] + right

print(QuickSort(data))

#result
# [87, 76, 65, 59, 43, 32, 26, 22, 14, 13]

This time, the value at the top of the list is used as the pivot, but there are various options such as the first value, the last value, and the median of the three appropriately selected values, and it is a quick process to select a good value. It's like the key to.
