This code doesnt make any sense. Especially the check on v[i]<v[left]. Shouldnt that be the other way around? According to this video, the code doesnt correspond...
/* qsort: sort v[left]...v[right] into increasing order */
void qsort(int v[], int left, int right)
{
int i, last;
void swap(int v[], int i, int j);
if (left >= right) /* do nothing if array contains */
return; /* fewer than two elements */
swap(v, left, (left + right)/2); /* move partition elem */
last = left; /* to v[0] */
for (i = left + 1; i <= right; i++) /* partition */
if (v[i] < v[left])
swap(v, ++last, i);
swap(v, left, last); /* restore partition elem */
qsort(v, left, last-1);
qsort(v, last+1, right);
}
