Amateur doubt about Terasort

HI,

I was trying to understand TeraSort code, but didn't find any
Mapper/Reducer. On googling came to know that its not needed (Hadoop does
sort on default). But I am not very clear about how it works. Can anyone
please brief me about how terasort works or any link that has document on
the same.

Thanks in advance,
Nitin

The IdentityMapper and IdentityReducer is what TeraSort uses ("it is
not needed/hadoop does sort on default" -> uses default
mapper/reducer).
