Genius sorting algorithm: Sleep sort

Man, am I a genius. Check out this sorting algorithm I just invented.


#!/bin/bash
function f() {
    sleep "$1"
    echo "$1"
}
while [ -n "$1" ]
do
    f "$1" &
    shift
done
wait

example usage:
./sleepsort.bash 5 3 6 3 6 3 1 4 7

OP here. Did someone submit this to reddit, or did they jsust randomly pick it up?   This has gone full lulz - especially the wikipedia afd discussion...also been googling, loads of blogs and stuff fapping over it - google translate is my friend for reading all the jap/chinny blogs
