Sorting Integers Function

EasyPython

Problem

Write a function that sorts an array of integers in ascending order. You may use any comparison-based sorting approach, but the function must return the sorted array.

Formal Specification

  • Input: A list of integers nums
  • Output: The same list of integers arranged in nondecreasing order
  • Function behavior: You may sort the array in place or return a new sorted list, but the returned value must be the sorted array

Constraints

  • 0 <= len(nums) <= 10^5
  • -10^9 <= nums[i] <= 10^9
  • The array may contain duplicate values
  • The function must handle an empty array

Function Signature

def sort_array(nums):
