     Smoothsort algorithm (Edsger W. Dijkstra).
 
-    Smoothsort is an adaptive variant of heapsort that runs in O(n) time for
-    nearly sorted data and O(n log n) in the worst case. It uses a special kind
-    of heap called a Leonardo heap.
+    Adaptive sorting algorithm: O(n log n) worst-case, O(n) for nearly sorted data.
+    Uses Leonardo heaps to improve performance on nearly sorted lists.
