Une exécution de l'algorithme du tri par tas (Heapsort) trie une partie des valeurs permutées au hasard. Dans un premier temps, les éléments sont réarrangés pour respecter les conditions de tas. Avant le tri à proprement parler, la structure de l'arbre en tas est montrée brièvement par l'illustration. (French)

A run of heapsort sorting an array of randomly permuted values. In the first stage of the algorithm the array elements are reordered to satisfy the heap property. Before the actual sorting takes place, the heap tree structure is shown briefly for illustration. (English)
