Selection sort:

Selection sort is used to sort the group of data.

  • Sorting is a process of placing the elements in order.
  • Selection sort finds the smallest element in the array by comparing all the elements.
  • The element values in the array are exchanged to place the smallest element in the first position.
  • Continuously, it finds the next smallest element and exchanges it in the successive positions.
  • The exchange process may place one or more elements in its permanent place.
