+    Parameters
+    ==========
+    array: Array
+        The array which is to be sorted.
+    comp: lambda/function
+        The comparator which is to be used
+        for sorting. Optional, by default, less than or
+        equal to is used for comparing two
+        values.
+
+    Examples
+    ========
+    >>> from pydatastructs import OneDimensionalArray, radix_sort
