Study Notes
Sorting Algorithms
- The primary goal of sorting is to arrange elements in a specific order, such as ascending or descending.
Bubble Sort Algorithm
- The bubble sort algorithm is described as the simplest sorting algorithm.
- If E1 is greater than E2 during the bubble sort algorithm, they are swapped.
- The time complexity of the bubble sort algorithm is O(n^2).
- The outer loop of the bubble sort algorithm executes n times for an array of length n.
Selection Sort Algorithm
- The primary purpose of sorting algorithms, including the selection sort algorithm, is to arrange elements in a specific order.
- The time complexity of the selection sort algorithm is O(n^2).
- The inner loop of the selection sort algorithm executes n times on average for an array of length n.
- The inner loop of the selection sort algorithm finds the smallest element in the unsorted portion of the array.
- The value of min in the selection sort algorithm after the inner loop completes is the smallest element in the unsorted portion of the array.
- The expected result of the selection sort algorithm on an array with distinct elements is an array sorted in ascending order.
- The purpose of the outer loop in the selection sort algorithm is to repeat the process of finding the smallest element until the entire array is sorted.
