I think the surprise comes from how long it takes to get the answer, not that it's incorrect. By comparison, gcc is able to reduce those two implementations to the same thing and prove them equal in a fraction of the time ( https:/

The paper in this post doesn't use neural networks at all. It also includes the time to train the model in the sorting time, which the paper you linked doesn't. NN-sort trains on historic data to sort future data, which requires t
