Randomization. Run empirical studies to compare the effectiveness of the strategy of choosing a random partitioning item with the strategy of initially randomizing the array (as in the text). Use a cutoff for arrays of size M, and sort arrays of N distinct elements, for M=10, 20, and 50 and N = 103, 104, 105, and 106.
