3 Bubble Sort Chapter 17: Sorting Algorithms Christian Jacob 1 Bubble Sort 1.1 Description Each two neighbouring elements (x, y) are compared: If x y then leave them unchanged. If x > y then swap their positions. This is done for all overlapping pairs, until no swaps have to be performed any more. 1.2 Performance In the worst case (data sorted in reverse order) and on average, bubble sort n 2 n 2 needs ---- comparisons and ---- swaps. 2 2 First Back TOC 3 Prev Next Last

6 Selection Sort Chapter 17: Sorting Algorithms Christian Jacob 2 Selection Sort 2.1 Description For each element x we search to the right in the array in order to find the smallest element y in the remainder of the array. If necessary, the two values x and y are swapped. The smallest value ends up at position one. The former value at position one now is at the previous position of the smaller value. The second smallest element ends up at position two, etc. First Back TOC 6 Prev Next Last

7 Selection Sort Chapter 17: Sorting Algorithms Christian Jacob 2.2 Performance In each iteration i, Selection Sort needs ( N i) comparisons, with N being the array length. Hence, the total number of comparisons is: N i = 1 ( N i) = N N N 2 On average, comparisons and N swaps are necessary 2 First Back TOC 7 Prev Next Last

10 Insertion Sort Chapter 17: Sorting Algorithms Christian Jacob 3 Insertion Sort 3.1 Description Insertion sort is similar to selection sort, but works the other way around: Each element is selected in turn and inserted at the correct position between the already sorted elements. Thus, to bring each element to its place correct position, a whole block of values has to be moved (in the worst case, the whole already sorted block). Advantage: Insertion sort behaves practically linear in the size of the array, if the array is "almost" sorted. This is usually the case for index files which are regularly resorted.

13 4 Quicksort 4.1 Description Quick sort is one of the standard sorting algorithms used today for a number of reasons: works with only little additional storage needed very well examined efficient The algorithm divides the array in two partitions with the following properties: The dividing element is already at the correct position (needs never be moved). All values in the right partition are smaller than the divider, all values in the left partition are larger. Then the algorithm is applied to the left and right partitions recursively (divideand-conquer method). First Back TOC 13 Prev Next Last

14 The Challenge The real challenge lies in finding an algorithm which divides the array as required for the recursive calls. One possible way to do so is as follows: Choose an arbitrary element. Take two pointers running inward from the edges of the array. For each pointer pair, swap the two wrongly ordered elements with respect to the arbitrary divider. When the two pointers meet, swap the divider with the element pointed to by the left pointer. 4.2 Performance On the average the algorithm performs using case it needs N 2 operations. N logn operations, in the worst The algorithm performance can be improved if more about the structure of the pre-sorted data is known. First Back TOC 14 Prev Next Last
