Given a set of random integers {0,5,100,65,...,0,1,2}, is there a mathematical method existing to construct a parametric form $f$ (the number of parameters $<<$ the number of integers) so that given any integer $x$, $f(x)$ gives the relative position (sorting position) of $x$?

Thanks!

    Just for clarity I suggest that you either remove the second zero or explain how it should be treated (even though the general answer is no).2012-09-26
