Algorithm 2 from arxiv.org/abs/..., a paper written by Stanley P.Y. Fung which documents novel sorting algorithms that are arguably the simplest ever discovered in computer science! This one isn't novel; it's supposedly a "classic exchange sort" named, well... "exchange sort". I've never heard of it before.
I named it "Earthbound Sort" because of a recent discovery made by Herringway: this algorithm is used by the SNES cult classic EarthBound, one of my personal favorites! You can find it in their decompilation here: github.com/Her... and here: github.com/Her.... There is an extra outer loop in the code (the "while true") that technically isn't included in the video, because... well... boy, is that beyond unnecessary.
Thanks to phoenixbound for bringing this to my attention!
