Which of the following are sorting algorithms?
A
Bubble
B
Merge
C
Linear
D
Insertion
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -In this tutorial, you will learn about insertion sort algorithm and its implementation in C, C++, Java and Python. Insertion sort is a sorting algorithm that places an unsorted element at its suitable place in each iteration. Insertion sort works similarly as we sort cards in our hand in a card game.

Detailed explanation-2: -Insertion sort is a simple sorting algorithm that works similar to the way you sort playing cards in your hands. The array is virtually split into a sorted and an unsorted part. Values from the unsorted part are picked and placed at the correct position in the sorted part.

Detailed explanation-3: -Insertion sort is an efficient sorting algorithm than selection and bubble sort. The average case time complexity of the insertion sort is closer to the worst-case time complexity, i.e. O(n²). The above pseudo-code sort the array in increasing order.
