Just for fun:  Stupid sort, The simplest sorting algorithm with only one loop…

Years ago when I was a PhD student at Glasgow University I published a note in the departmental newsletter (issue 599, 2 October 2000) on a simple sort algorithm that had only one loop and called it Stupid Sort (you surely know that sort algorithms are either recursive or non-recursive but with two nested loops). Several years later, the algorithm has been reported as Gnome sort by Dr Dick Grune. 

It seems that the algorithm is getting more importance and even applied for parsing.  I am now thinking of becoming an inventor. Wow!!!
