Until now we have covered different data structures and their performance. In this chapter, we will start learning about algorithms, which are the essential ways of processing data. The main functionality of algorithms is taking data as an input, processing it, and returning it as output.
In this chapter we will look at sorting algorithms which sort the data. The goal with sorting is to move from disarray to order. A sorting algorithm is made up of a series of instructions that takes lists as input, performs an operation on them, and outputs a sorted list. There are different ...
