  1. Sorting

  2. Sorting • A common activity for programmers to do is sort. • You’ve been asked to do this for your last project. • There are many ways to sort data • We will look at sorting arrays • You will have to generalize this to sorting an ArrayList

  3. Two Basic Sorts • Bubble sort • A horrible sort. • Very slow and no redeeming qualities • But it is very easy to implement • Selection sort • Not much better than bubble sort • It is still slow but not as slow as bubble sort • It is also very easy to implement

  4. Selection Sort for (passCount = 0; passCount<length-1;passCount++ ) { minIndx = passCount; for (srchIndx=passCount+1;srchIndx<length;srchIndx++) if ( data[srchIndx] < data[minIndx] ) minIndx = srchIndx; temp = data[minIndx]; data[minIndx] = data[passCount]; data[passCount] = temp; } }

  5. Things to Note • The temp variable used in the swapping, must be of the same type as the array. • minIndex, passCount, srchIndex, length are all integers • Length is the length of the array • More specifically, it is the number of locations in the array that have been used.
