{ File: usorters.pas

  This unit contains non optimal implementations of some sort algoritms but
  designed to be easilly injected in any code that needs to sort an array or
  any other data as all compare, swap, etc, actions are handled by callback
  routines "of object". This way is easy to sort an array in your code just
  creating an instance and pointing the:

    OnCompareOfClass
    OnSwapOfClass
    OnCopyToTemporalStorageOfClass
    OnCopyFromTemporalStorageOfClass
    OnCopyElementOfClass

  To functions that perform that basic tasks in your code.
  Not all sorters needs all the handlers, most of them only needs the
  compare and swap routines.
