bogo-sort
     
         /boh"goh-sort"/ (Or "stupid-sort") The
        archetypical perversely awful {algorithm} (as opposed to
        {bubble sort}, which is merely the generic *bad* algorithm).
        Bogo-sort is equivalent to repeatedly throwing a deck of cards
        in the air, picking them up at random, and then testing
        whether they are in order.  It serves as a sort of canonical
        example of awfulness.  Looking at a program and seeing a dumb
        algorithm, one might say "Oh, I see, this program uses
        bogo-sort."
     
        Also known as "monkey sort" after the {Infinite Monkey
        Theorem}.
     
        Compare {brute force}, {Lasherism}.
     
        {An implementation (http://www.stdout.org/~adam/psort)}.
