/**
* Histogram sort
*
* This sort is interesting in that it is a "comparison-free" sort. That is to
* say that it doesn't ever directly compare two items against each other to
* determine the larger one, much like conventional sorting algorithms does.
*
* Instead, a histogram is built by counting the frequency of each value in
* the input set. Then, a sorted output set is constructed from this histogram
* since it is implicitly in order.
*
* This has the disadvantage of becoming heavy on memory usage when the input
* values increase in range. Theoretically, if the range was high, but sparse,
* some simple compression could be applied. There's an area for
* experimentation.
