XOR Partition Sort
For an array $B$ of length $M$, consider partitioning the array into $K$ non-intersecting subarrays, and then choosing $K$ integers $X_1, X_2, \ldots, X_K$ and replacing all elements of the $i^{th}$ subarray, say $B_j$ with $B_j \oplus X_i$, where $\oplus$ represents the [bitwise XOR operator](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bitwise_operation#XOR). Note that $X_i$ can be an **arbitrary** non-negativ
