<LI>The merge-sort algorithm is implemented to take advantage of

subsequences that may be already in the desired ordering prior to

the subroutine call; this situation is relatively common when

|
dealing with groups of indices of sparse matrix entries, thus
|
|
merge-sort is often the preferred choice when a sorting is needed
|
|
by other routines in the library.
