Algorithms: Sorting

  • Sorting is putting items in a collection in order (either ascending or descending)
  • Can sort primitive types or objects of any class that implements the Comparable interface
  • Selection Sort is a simple but inefficient sorting algorithm
  • Insertion Sort is a simple but inefficient sorting algorithm
  • Merge Sort is a more efficient, recursive sorting algorithm
  • Quick Sort is a more efficient, recursive sorting algorithm (most efficient sort algorithm for large collections of data but not in the AP subset)
