Except for the random fill of the low res screen and generation of the
initial delta value, the code for this sort is no more difficult to
program in assembly than the bubble sort presented by Roger. For this
exercise there is no real need to program either in assembly. You can
take whatever is on the low res text screen as initial data and D can be
precalculated since the data length is fixed.
Both of these sort programs are easier to program and follow for a
beginner than printing "Hello world" if you include the actual print
algorithm and don't interface with the Basic ROMs.
