When trying to run property based tests on the sorting algorithms available in javascript-algorithms, I detected sorting issues on CountingSort and RadixSort with arrays having negative entries.
Here is a fix to be able to handle negative integers in CountingSort.
The commit adding property based tests to the sorting algorithms is available at dubzzz@34b0c46
If you are interested in such testing approach I can issue another pull request to add those tests too.
