"""
Kirkpatrick-Reisch sorting algorithm.
Divides input into sqrt(n) blocks, sorts each, then merges using a min-heap.
Time Complexity:
- Average case: O(n * sqrt(n))
- Worst case: O(n * sqrt(n))
- Best case: O(n * sqrt(n))
Space Complexity: O(n)

Implements the Kirkpatrick-Reisch sorting algorithm.
Args:
arr (list): The input list to be sorted.
Returns:
list: A new list containing the sorted elements.
Examples:
>>> kirkpatrick_reisch_sort([3, 1, 4, 1, 5, 9, 2, 6, 5, 3, 5])
[1, 1, 2, 3, 3, 4, 5, 5, 5, 6, 9]
>>> kirkpatrick_reisch_sort([])
[]
>>> kirkpatrick_reisch_sort([1])
[1]
>>> kirkpatrick_reisch_sort([5, 4, 3, 2, 1])
[1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
>>> kirkpatrick_reisch_sort([-1, -3, 5, 0, 2])
