// n: minimum number of values to sort
// fc: compare function (a, b)
// fm: map function (v, i, x)
// fs: swap function (x, i, j)
const xarray = require('extra-array');
// Sort a range of values (index 0 to 3).
var x = [4, -3, 1, -2];
xarray.rangedPartialSort(x, 0, 3, 3);
// → [ -3, 1, 4, -2 ] (compares numbers)
// Partially sort a range of values (index 0 to 3).
// First 2 values are guaranteed to be sorted.
xarray.rangedPartialSort(x, 0, 3, 2);
// → [ -3, 1, 4, -2 ]
// Partially sort using absolute values.
xarray.rangedPartialSort(x, 0, 3, 2, null, v => Math.abs(v));
