  We show that several versions of Floyd and Rivest's algorithm Select [Comm.\
ACM {\bf 18} (1975) 173] for finding the $k$th smallest of $n$ elements require
at most $n+\min\{k,n-k\}+o(n)$ comparisons on average, even when equal elements
occur. This parallels our recent analysis of another variant due to Floyd and
Rivest [Comm. ACM {\bf 18} (1975) 165--172]. Our computational results suggest
that both variants perform well in practice, and may compete with other
selection methods, such as Hoare's Find or quickselect with median-of-3 pivots.
