Which of these is not a sorting algorithm?
A
Bubble
B
Insertion
C
Merge
D
Binary
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Thus merge sort is not an in place sorting algorithm.

Detailed explanation-2: -Binary insertion sort is a sorting algorithm similar to insertion sort, but instead of using linear search to find the position where the element should be inserted, we use binary search. Thus, we reduce the number of comparisons for inserting one element from O(N) to O(log N).

Detailed explanation-3: -Explanation: During insertion sort, the relative order of elements is not changed. Therefore, it is a stable sorting algorithm. And insertion sort requires only O(1) of additional memory space. Therefore, it sorts In-place.

Detailed explanation-4: -Some of the most common sorting algorithms are: Selection sort. Bubble sort. Insertion sort.
