Stable Sort

Explore the concept of stable sorting algorithms and their importance in maintaining the relative order of elements with identical keys. Understand different sorting algorithms, their stability, and complexity to apply the right sorting technique effectively in Go programming.

We'll cover the following...

Introduction

A sorting method is stable if two elements with identical key values appear in the same order in the sorted output as they do in the unsorted input. Stable sorting algorithms guarantee that elements with identical keys will not be reordered.

Summary of sorting algorithms

The following table summarizes the sorting algorithms with respect to their complexities and stability.
