Thanks, man. I tried to integrate your code into my and add some features... and I lost maybe two or three hours to fix the problems.

Your script is #@!)) Sorry. Try it with random generated array, and array with repeatable numbers.
Surprise — it doesnt work and goes to recursion.

Finally I used this one... https://itnext.io/a-sort-of-quick-guide-to-quicksort-and-hoares-partitioning-scheme-in-javascript-7792112c6d1
