Algorithm 232: Heapsort
Open accessAbstract
a,b,j,k,s,d,n,p); value n; real a,b; integer array s,d; integer j,k,n,p; comment a procedure using Jensen's device which exchanges rows or columns of a matrix to achieve a rearrangement specified by the permutation vectors s,d[l :n].Elements of s specify the original source locations while elements of d specify the desired destination locations.Normally a and b will be called as subscripted variables of the same array.The parameters j,k nominate the subscripts of the dimension affected by the permutation, pis the Jensen parameter.As an example of the use of this procedure, suppose r,c[l :n] to contain the row and column subscripts of the successive matrix pivots used in a matrix inversion of an array a[l :n,l :n]; i.e. r[l], c[l] are the relative subscripts of the first pivot r[2], c(2] those of the second pivot and so on.The two calls matrixperm (a[j,p], a[k,p], j,k,r,c,n,p) and matrixperm (a[p,j], a[p,k], j,k,c,r,n,p) will perform the required rearrangement of rows and columns respectively; begin integer array tag, loc[l :n]; integer i,t; real w; comment set up initial vector tag number and address arrays;for i := 1 step 1 until n do tag[i] := loc[i] := i; • comment start permutation;for i := 1 step 1 until

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
