What about a quick sort O(log n)
void sort_stack(Stack *src, Stack *dst)
{
if(! src->IsEmpty() )
{
Stack smaller, larger;
int pivot = src->Pop();
while(! src->IsEmpty() )
{
int tmp = src->Pop();
if(tmp < pivot)
smaller->Push(tmp);
else
larger->Push(tmp);
}
sort_stack(smaller, dst);
dst->Push(pivot);
sort_stack(larger, dst);
}
}
