Sort files or its standard input using the bogo-sort algorithm described in the Jargon File . A quote from the Jargon File 'bogo-sort' entry: ...The archetypical perversely awful algorithm (as opposed to _bubble sort_, which is merely the generic bad algorithm). _Bogo-sort_ is equivalent to repeatedly throwing a deck of cards in the air, picking them up at random, and then testing whether they are in order. It serves as a sort of canonical example of awfulness. Looking at a program and seeing a dumb algorithm, one might say "Oh, I see, this program uses _bogo-sort_." Esp. appropriate for algorithms with factorial or super-exponential running time in the average case and probabilistically infinite worst-case running time. Compare _bogus_, _brute force_, _lasherism_... Author: Ulrik Haugen WWW: http://www.lysator.liu.se/~qha/bogosort/
