Program Plan Intro

Sorting:

When contents of the array being arranged in the particular order is called as sorting. The order of arranging the contents can be ascending or descending order.

Types of sorting:

  • Bubble sort
  • Selection sort
  • Insertion sort
  • Merge sort
  • Quick sort
  • Shell sort
  • Heap sort

These sort have the possibility of sorting the array in both ascending and descending order.

A sort algorithm that finds the smallest element of the array and interchanges it with the element in the first position of the array. Then it finds the second smallest element from the remaining elements in the array and places it in the second position of the array and so on
IN C PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE AND COMMENT EVERY LINE PLEASE SO I CAN UNDERSTAND EVERY STEP , The selection sort is one of several techniques for sorting an array. A selection sort compares every element of an array with all the other elements of the array and exchanges their values if they are out of order. After the first pass of a selection sort, the first array element is in the correct position; after the second pass the first two elements of the array are in the correct position, and so on. Thus, after each pass of a selection sort, the unsorted portion of the array contains one less element. Write and test a function that implements this sorting method.
Double Insertion Sort is a variation on Insertion Sort that works from the middle of the array out. At each iteration, some middle portion of the array is sorted. On the next iteration, take the two adjacent elements to the sorted portion of the array. If they are out of order with respect to each other, then swap them. Now, push the left element toward the right in the array so long as it is greater than the element to its right. And push the right element toward the left in the array so long as it is less than the element to its left. The algorithm begins by processing the middle two elements of the array if the array is even. If the array is odd, then skip processing the middle item and begin with processing the elements to its immediate left and right. Implement Double Insertion Sort, being careful to properly handle both when the array is odd and when it is even. By using java, Implement the Double Insertion sort algorithm on a randomly generated list of N integer numbers. Your…
