This module will create sorting networks, a sequence of comparisons
that do not depend upon the results of prior comparisons.
There are several algorithms to generate sorting networks. This
module has three of them: Bose and Nelson's, Hibbard's, and
Batcher's Merge Exchange. It also has networks that were found
to be superior in comparison count to those generated automatically
by these algorithms.
There is a flexible formatting function that will allow you to
print out your network in many ways (see documentation). There
is also a graphical output function that will return the network
in an encapsulated postscript, SVG, or text form.
