Class SelectionSort<T extends java.lang.Comparable>

java.lang.Object

com.sl.algorithms.sort.generalpurpose.smalldata.SelectionSort<T>

All Implemented Interfaces:

BaseInterface<T>, Constants, SortingEngine<T>

public class SelectionSort<T extends java.lang.Comparable>
extends java.lang.Object
implements SortingEngine<T>

In-place quadratic-complexity sort algorithm, useful for small data-set.

Reference

Approach: Given a list, take the current element and exchange it with the smallest element on the right.

Usage: Small data-set / when 'write' operation is expensive.

Inner Loop: operates on the Unsorted portion.
