Memory use of sort!

This page is part of the web mail archives of SRFI 95 from before July 7th, 2015. The new archives for SRFI 95 contain all messages, not just those from before July 7th, 2015.



The specification of sort! reads:


  Function: sort! sequence less?
  Function: sort! sequence less? key

      Returns list, array, vector, or string sequence which has been
  mutated to order its elements according to less?. Given valid
  arguments, it is always the case that:

      (sorted? (sort! sequence less?) less?) => #t

Would be possible to add that the sorting is in-place?
That is guarantee, that no (or very little) extra memory
is allocated during the sorting process.
