* Fix negative indexing bug and improve readability in wiggle_sort Issue: - The previous implementation used `enumerate(nums)`, starting the loop at `i = 0`. This caused `nums[i - 1]` to evaluate to `nums[-1]`, accidentally comparing (and potentially swapping) the first element with the last element of the array on the first iteration. - The conditional logic `(i % 2 == 1) == (nums[i - 1] > nums[i])` was convoluted, hard to read, and triggered unnecessary swaps when adjacent numbers were equal. Fix: - Changed the loop to use `range(1, len(nums))` to ensure the index safely starts at 1, eliminating the negative indexing bug. - Replaced the confusing equality check with explicit `if/elif` statements that clearly define the peak (odd indices) and valley (even indices) requirements of a Wiggle Sort. - Preserved all original docstrings and the __main__ block as-is. * [pre-commit.ci] auto fixes from pre-commit.com hooks for more information, see https://pre-commit.ci * Combine conditional branches to satisfy ruff linting - Updated `wiggle_sort` logic to merge the odd and even swap conditions using a single `or` expression. - Fixes SIM114 ruff linter check failure (`Combine if branches using logical or operator`). * [pre-commit.ci] auto fixes from pre-commit.com hooks for more information, see https://pre-commit.ci * Update doctests in wiggle_sort to match fixed implementation output - Updated expected outputs for negative array doctests in `sorts/wiggle_sort.py`. - The previous doctest expectations relied on the incorrect behavior caused by the index-0 negative lookup bug. - Fixes pytest doctest mismatch failure in CI build job. --------- Co-authored-by: pre-commit-ci[bot] <66853113+pre-commit-ci[bot]@users.noreply.github.com>

Wiggle Sort.
|
|
|
|
Given an unsorted array nums, reorder it such
|

that nums[0] < nums[1] > nums[2] < nums[3]....
|
|
For example:
|
|
if input numbers = [3, 5, 2, 1, 6, 4]
|
|
one possible Wiggle Sorted answer is [3, 5, 1, 6, 2, 4].
