GDBS Sort (address-order)

Sort any list of numbers in GDBS's own address order - exact, deterministic, in-browser.

See it run - a worked example, 100% in this browser tab

The problem

Teams that want to understand where a value lives in the GDBS mesh, not just its rank, get nothing extra from a generic comparison sort. They sort once and still have to compute the mesh address separately.

The local-first solution

GDBS Sort runs a distribution sort keyed by each value's mesh address entirely client-side: each value self-locates to a 3-integer (H,V,P) mesh cell, and reading records out in address order yields the exactly ordered sequence. Pure exact integer arithmetic, nothing uploaded.

What it does

Parses free-form numbers (comma, space, tab, or newline separated)
Extracts numbers from a chosen 1-based CSV/TSV column, skipping headers
Maps each value to its toroidal (H,V,P) mesh cell by position in the min-max span
Emits records in address order for the exactly sorted result
Applies a within-cell exact-value tiebreak so output is ordered at any mesh resolution
Reports each value's mesh cell alongside its rank in a single pass

Honest scope

This is a distribution sort over GDBS's own address space, made into a sort. It is exact and deterministic, but it is NOT a faster comparison sort and does not beat O(n log n) on a single key; the value is that the order IS the GDBS address order. Not a physics solve, so it reports an UNTRACKED trust verdict over exact integer arithmetic.

Sort and address in one pass

Run it in your browser with nothing uploaded to anyone's cloud, then route the sorted list and its mesh addresses into a Sandbox workspace or attach them to a Worklog case.
