.SYNOPSIS
Measures the speed of BucketSort
.DESCRIPTION
This PowerShell script measures the speed of the BucketSort algorithm.
BucketSort is a sorting algorithm that works by distributing the elements
of an array into a number of buckets. Each bucket is then sorted individually,
either using a different sorting algorithm, or by recursively applying the bucket
sorting algorithm. It is a distribution sort, a generalization of pigeonhole sort
that allows multiple keys per bucket, and is a cousin of radix sort in the
most-to-least significant digit flavor. Bucket sort can be implemented with comparisons
and therefore can also be considered a comparison sort algorithm. The computational
complexity depends on the algorithm used to sort each bucket, the number of buckets
to use, and whether the input is uniformly distributed.
.PARAMETER numIntegers
Specifies the number of integers to sort
.EXAMPLE
PS> ./measure-BucketSort.ps1
🧭 0.065 sec to sort 1000 integers by BucketSort
