Quicksort in JavaScript

/**
 * An implementation for Quicksort. Doesn't
 * perform as well as the native Array.sort
 * and also runs the risk of a stack overflow
 *
 * Tests with:
 *
 * var array = [];
 * for(var i = 0; i < 20; i++) {
 *   array.push(Math.round(Math.random() * 100));
 * }
 *
 * Quicksort.sort(array);

Line 38 should be 'right'

Line 71 should be 'right' either
