Explanation of Solution

Pseudocode explanation:

The variable “index”, “scan” and “unsortedValue” is declared as integer. The first element is compared with the next one and the comparison carried out till the last index. Assign “index” to “scan”. If the “array[scan-1] ” is less than the “array[scan]” then swap is performed for that particular pairs of element.

The given pseudocode performs the “Insertion sort algorithm”.

An array is a collection of similar data elements stored at contiguous memory locations. It is the simplest data structure where each data element can be accessed directly by only using its index number. The following is an array of unsorted numbers called NumArr. NumArr: 24 56 78 79 34 75 2 23
