What is the time complexity? O(n log n) most probably. And what actual sort does it use? Quick sort or merge sort or any other?

> In the worst case, Timsort takes O(n logn) comparisons to sort an array of n elements. In the best case, which occurs when the input is already sorted, it runs in linear time, meaning that it is an adaptive sorting algorithm.
