    Sorting involves ordering a list of objects. Internal sorting handles lists that fit in memory, while external sorting handles lists too large for memory. Common internal sorting algorithms include radix sort, bucket sort, bubble sort, insertion sort, selection sort, heapsort, and mergesort. Radix sort is linear but not in-place, stable, and depends on data type. Bucket sort is useful for uniformly distributed ranges. Bubble sort, insertion sort, and selection sort have quadratic time complexity making them unsuitable for large datasets. Merge sort uses a divide and conquer approach with logarithmic time complexity.

    Sorting

    Sorting is ordering a list of objects.


    If the number of objects is small enough to fits into the main memory,
    sorting is called internal sorting.
    If the number of objects is so large that some of them reside on
    external storage during the sort, it is called external sorting.
    Below are the internal sorting algorithms
    Radix sort
    Bucket sort
    Bubble sort
    Insertion sort
    Selection sort
    Heapsort
    Mergesort
    Radix sort _ O(n) algorithms
    Radix Sort is a linear sorting algorithm.
    It is not an in-place sorting algorithm as it requires extra additional
    space.
    Radix Sort is stable sort as relative order of elements with equal
    values is maintained.
    Radix sort can be slower than other sorting algorithms like merge sort
    and quick sort, if the operations are not efficient enough. These
    operations include inset and delete functions of the sub-list and the
    process of isolating the digits we want.
    Radix sort is less flexible than other sorts as it depends on the digits or
    letter. Radix sort needs to be rewritten if the type of data is changed.
    Bucket Sort/Bin Sort

    Bucket sort is mainly useful when input is uniformly distributed


    over a range.
    Example: Sort a large set of floating point numbers which are in range
    from 0.0 to 1.0 and are uniformly distributed across the range. How do
    we sort the numbers efficiently?
    A simple way is to apply a comparison based sorting algorithm.
    The lower bound for Comparison based sorting algorithm (Merge Sort,
    Heap Sort, Quick-Sort .. etc) is (n Log n), i.e., they cannot do better
    than nLogn.
    Can we sort the array in linear time? Counting sort can not be applied here
    as we use keys as index in counting sort.
    Here keys are floating point numbers.
    The idea is to use bucket sort.
    Bucket algorithm

    bucketSort(arr[], n)
    1) Create n empty buckets (Or lists).
    2) Do following for every array element arr[i].
    .......a) Insert arr[i] into bucket[n*array[i]]
    3) Sort individual buckets using insertion sort.
    4) Concatenate all sorted buckets.
    Bucket sort vs counting sort vs radix sort
    There are two main variants of bucket sort; one where there is a bucket
    for each value, and where buckets hold several values.
    Bucket sort is often seen as a generalisation of counting sort because
    bucket sort with a bucket size of 1 is essentially counting sort, just
    with a more complex implementation.
    Another similar sort, radix sort, also distributes items into buckets.
    However, they are distributed based on the individual digits within the
    values themselves.
    Counting sort: buckets hold only a single value
    Bucket sort: buckets hold a range of values
    Radix sort: buckets hold values based on digits within their values
    Bubble sort _O(n2) algorithms

    Bubble sort is a simple sorting algorithm.


    This sorting algorithm is comparison-based algorithm in which each
    pair of adjacent elements is compared and the elements are swapped if
    they are not in order.
    The algorithm repeats this process until it makes a pass all the way
    through the list without swapping any items.
    This algorithm is not suitable for large data sets as its average and
    worst case complexity are of (n2) where n is the number of items.
    Example 2:
    Insertion Sort
    This is an in-place comparison-based sorting algorithm.
    Here, a sub-list is maintained which is always sorted.
    For example, the lower part of an array is maintained to be sorted.
    An element which is to be 'insert'ed in this sorted sub-list, has to find
    its appropriate place and then it has to be inserted there. Hence the
    name, insertion sort.
    The array is searched sequentially and unsorted items are moved and
    inserted into the sorted sub-list (in the same array).
    This algorithm is not suitable for large data sets as its average and
    worst case complexity are of (n2), where n is the number of items.
    Algorithm

    // Sort an arr[] of size n


    insertionSort(arr, n)
    Loop from i = 1 to n-1.
    a) Pick element arr[i] and insert it into sorted sequence arr[0i-1]
    Selection sort
    Selection sort is a simple sorting algorithm.
    This sorting algorithm is an in-place comparison-based algorithm in
    which the list is divided into two parts, the sorted part at the left end
    and the unsorted part at the right end. Initially, the sorted part is empty
    and the unsorted part is the entire list.
    The smallest element is selected from the unsorted array and swapped
    with the leftmost element, and that element becomes a part of the
    sorted array. This process continues moving unsorted array boundary
    by one element to the right.
    This algorithm is not suitable for large data sets as its average and
    worst case complexities are of (n2), where n is the number of items.
    Heap Sort


    ..
    Merge sort
    Merge sort is a sorting technique based on divide and conquer
    technique.
    With worst-case time complexity being (n log n), it is one of the
    most respected algorithms.
    Merge sort first divides the array into equal halves and then combines
    them in a sorted manner( Ascending or Descending).
    Example
    External Sorting
    Pick First element as pivot.

    Pick Last element as pivot.

    Pick Random element as pivot.

    Pick median as pivot.
