Implement a quicksort based on using a sample of size 2k  1. First, sort the sample, then arrange to have the recursive routine partition on the median of the sample and to move the two halves of the rest of the sample to each subarray, such that they can be used in the subarrays, without having to be sorted again. This algorithm is called samplesort.
