Move all odd positioned element to left half and even positioned to right half in-place

Question

Given an array with positive and negative integers, move all the odd indexed elements to the left and even indexed elements to the right.

Answer 1

I modified the code here to get this algorithm:

void PartitionIndexParity(T arr[], size_t n)
{
    using std::swap;
    for (size_t shift = 0, k; shift != n; shift += k)
    {
        k = (size_t)pow(3, ceil(log(n - shift) / log(3)) - 1) + 1;
        for (size_t i = 1; i < k; i *= 3)  // cycle-leader algorithm
        {
            size_t j = i;
            do { swap(arr[(j = j / 2 + (j % 2) * (k / 2)) + shift], arr[i + shift]); } while (j != i);
        }

        for (size_t b = shift / 2, m = shift, e = shift + (k - k / 2), i = m; shift != 0 && k != 0; )  // or just use std::rotate(arr, b, m, e)
        {
            swap(arr[b++], arr[i++]);
            if (b == m && i == e) { break; }
            if (b == m) { m = i; }
            else if (i == e) { i = m; }
        }
    }
}
