cunumeric.sort#

cunumeric.sort(a, axis=- 1, kind='quicksort', order=None)#

Returns a sorted copy of an array.

Parameters

a (array_like) – Input array.
axis (int or None, optional) – Axis to sort. By default, the index -1 (the last axis) is used. If None, the flattened array is used.
kind ({'quicksort', 'mergesort', 'heapsort', 'stable'}, optional) – Default is ‘quicksort’. The underlying sort algorithm might vary. The code basically supports ‘stable’ or not ‘stable’.
order (str or list[str], optional) – Currently not supported

Returns

out – Sorted array with same dtype and shape as a. In case axis is None the result is flattened.

Return type

ndarray

Notes

The current implementation has only limited support for distributed data. Distributed 1-D or flattened data will be broadcasted.
