Introduction to Sorting Algorithms

With sorting algorithms, we can put items of a list in the right order. There are many different ways to sort a list, which all have different time complexities! Sorting a list can be extremely efficient before using other algorithms, such as search or merge algorithms.

Following are the 9 popular sorting algorithms:

• Bubble sort
• Insertion sort
• Merge sort
• Quicksort
• Selection sort
• Counting sort
• Bucket sort
• Radix sort
• Heapsort
