The function returns locations of the original numbers after sorting if 'index' is not NULL. For example, if smallest element in 'vector' is originally in location 5, after sorting index[5] will be 0. If next-smallest is originally in location 2, index[2] will be 1, etc. To produce an alternative index, indicating which element goes into a given location after sorting, use the following code segment: for (j = 0; j < len; j++) { idx = index[j]; isx[idx] = j; } Return -1 if 'index' is not NULL, and malloc() fails. Otherwise return 0. The heapsort algorithm works by first arranging the array into a 'heap' order. Example heap order for an array of 8 elements a[0..7]: a[0] >= a[1] a[0] >= a[2] a[1] >= a[3] a[1] >= a[4] a[2] >= a[5] a[2] >= a[6] a[3] >= a[7] Once in heap order, the array is sorted using similar algorithm which produced the heap order. The algorithm implementation largely follows Algorithm H (Heapsort), in: Donald E. Knuth, The Art of Computer Programming, Volume 3, Second Edition, Section 5.2.3, p. 145. Section 8.3, Heapsort. Addison-Wesley, 1998.
