In insertion sort, the array to be sorted is divided into two sub-arrays.
we start with first element of the array as the sorted array and the rest of the array as un-sorted array. We incrementally move elements from un-sorted section to sorted section via linear search.
The array is sorted when the un-sorted section is empty
Instructions: Type in the sequence of integers that you want to sort. Click anywhere outside of the input box to start the simulation. To restart simulation, click into the input box then click outside
Numbers will be sorted in descending order
Binary insertion sort is insertion sort but instead of using linear search to organize the elements, we use binary search
Instructions: Type in the sequence of integers that you want to sort. Click anywhere outside of the input box to start the simulation. To restart simulation, click into the input box then click outside
Numbers will be sorted in descending order
Quick sort is a divide and conquor algorithm. The algorithm picks a pivot (can follow arbitary selection strategy), then re-oragnizes the array by move larger elements to one side of the pivot and smaller elements to the other side. By doing so, the pivot is correctly placed at its sorted position. This procedure is done repeatedly untill all elements are at their sorted position.

Merge sort is a divide and conquor algorithm. It works by dividing an array into smaller subarrays, sorting each subarray, and then merging the sorted subarrays back together to form the final sorted array.
