Sort

You can sort a range with std::sort or std::stable_sort or sort until a position with std::partial_sort. In addition std::partial_sort_copy copies the partially sorted range. With std::nth_element you can assign an element the sorted position in the range. You can check with std::is_sorted if a range is sorted.
