Sorting is a fundamental concept in computer science, especially when dealing with algorithms. LeetCode offers a variety of tutorials that cover sorting algorithms. In this page, you'll find explanations and examples of different sorting methods.
Common Sorting Algorithms
Here are some common sorting algorithms with brief descriptions:
- Bubble Sort: Compare adjacent elements and swap them if they are in the wrong order.
- Selection Sort: Repeatedly select the minimum element from the unsorted part and place it at the beginning.
- Insertion Sort: Build the sorted array one element at a time, picking elements from the unsorted part.
- Merge Sort: Divide and conquer algorithm that divides the input array into two halves, sorts them, and then merges the two sorted halves.
- Quick Sort: Another divide and conquer algorithm that selects a 'pivot' element and partitions the array around the pivot.
