None of the above
|
Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The algorithms we will cover are: Bubble sort. Selection sort. Merge sort.
Detailed explanation-2: -Bubble Sort This sorting algorithm is the simplest sorting algorithm that works by repeatedly swapping the adjacent elements if they are in the wrong order. If we have total N elements, then we need to repeat the above process for N-1 times.
Detailed explanation-3: -The least number of comparisons needed to sort (order) five elements is 8.
Detailed explanation-4: -How many passes does an insertion sort algorithm consist of? Explanation: An insertion algorithm consists of N-1 passes when an array of N elements is given.
