Abstract—Computational problems have significance from the early civilizations. These problems and solutions are used for the study of universe. Numbers and symbols have been used for mathematics, statistics. After the emergence of computers the number and objects needs to be arranged in a particular order either ascending and descending orders. The ordering of these numbers is generally referred to as sorting. Sorting has many applications in computer systems, file management, memory management. Sorting algorithm is an algorithm by which elements are arranged in a particular order following some characteristic or law. A number of sorting algorithms have been proposed with different time and space complexities. In this research author develop a new sorting technique to keep in view the existing techniques. Author also proposed the algorithm i.e. Relative Split and Concatenate Sort, implements the algorithm and then compared results with some of the existing sorting algorithms. Algorithm’s time and space complexity is also being the part of this paper. With respect to complexity sorting algorithms mainly can be divided into 2 categories: O(n2) and O(nlogn). The proposed algorithm Split and Concatenate Sort is under the category of O(n2) and is efficient, in terms of time complexity, than existing algorithms lay in this category. It is discovered that the algorithms proposed in this research is relatively simpler and efficient than some of the existing well known sorting algorithms i.e. bubble sort, insertion sort and selection sort.
