Bubble sort is a simple sorting algorithm. It compares each adjacent pair and check if the
elements are in order. If they arent the elements are swapped. This process continues until all
elements are sorted.
If there is an integer array of n elements, and the algorithm output the array in an increasing
order from smallest to the largest the bubble sort can be implemented as
forint i ;i n; i
forint j;j n ; j
ifarrj arrj
int temp arrj;
arrj arrj;
arrj temp;
You have an array Xn and an array Ynnn So X represents the best case
the array is already sorted and Y represents the worst case the array is sorted reversely
Analyze the above bubble sort and calculate the total number of operations with input X and
Y respectively.
There is another way of implementing bubble sort where the algorithm also checks if the array
has been sorted to improve the efficiency We create a flag that checks if a swap has occurred
between any adjacent pairs. If there is no swap while traversing the entire array, the array is
completely sorted, and the algorithm can break out of the loop. This is called a revised bubble
sort. It can be implemented as
forint i ;i n; i
boolean isSwapped false;
forint j;j n ; j
ifarrj arrj
int temp arrj;
arrj arrj;
arrj temp;
isSwapped true;
ifisSwapped
break;
Analyze the above revised bubble sort and calculate the total number of operations with
input X and Y respectively.
