<p>PURPOSE:To provide the sorting device which can reduce buffer memories. CONSTITUTION:This device is provided with a distribution count memory 4 for updating stored contents on a data number each time reference value data are inputted, chain memory 5 for storing the data number to be updated as a data number with the updated number as an address each time updating is performed, first and second flags '1' and '2' corresponding to the respective addresses of the distribution count memory 4 and a third flag '3' corresponding to the respective addresses of the chain memory 5, and data numbers are basically read in the order from the smaller address of the distribution count memory 4. Depending on the state of the flag '1', the next address is transferred, depending on the state of the flag '2', the chain memory 5 is transferred, depending on the state of the flag '3', the chain operation is performed and the data numbers read from the memories 4 and 5 are written in a result memory 6.</p> |
