Sorting Algorithms
Sorting is the process of putting data in a specific order. The way to arrange data in a specific order is specified by the sorting algorithm. The most typical orders are lexical or numerical. The significance of sorting lies in the fact that, if data is stored in a sorted manner, data searching can be highly optimised. Another use for sorting is to represent data in a more readable manner.
This section contains a lot of important algorithms that helps us to use sorting algorithms in various scenarios.
