External Sort Code in C/C++

[MirJafar Ali]

Hello


External sorting is well defined by Prof. Knuth as sorting process in the
files and
not in memory.  For example, I want to sort 100GB on my machine with 1GB
RAM.
I don't think that STL and standard binary sort will do that they are all
in-memory
sorting codes.
