This document provides an overview of selection sort, including its objectives, previous knowledge required, algorithm, program, animation, applications, and advantages/disadvantages. Selection sort works by iterating through an array and swapping the smallest remaining element into the sorted portion of the array. It is useful for sorting small arrays or when memory is limited, but performs more slowly as the number of elements increases compared to other sorting algorithms.

for(i=0; i< n-1; i++)
{
/* find the index of min element in the unsorted a[j ..
n-1] assume the min is the first element */
minIndex=i;
// test against elements after j to find the smallest
for(j=i+1; j< n; j++)
{
// if this element is less, then it is the new minimum
if(A[j] < A[minIndex])
minIndex = j;
}
/* iMin is the index of the minimum element. Swap it
with the current position */
if(minIndex!=i)
{
temp = A[i];
A[i]=A[minIndex];
A[minIndex] = temp;
}

- 2. 2 OBJECTIVES To learn sorting To learn about Selection Sort – writing program Application of Selection Sort Advantages & Disadvantages
- 3. 3 PREVIOUS KNOWLEDGE Variables Loops Functions
- 4. 4 Sorting Arranging elements/data/items in ascending or descending order of values. Fundamental problems in computer science and programming Sorting done to make searching easier Multiple different algorithms to solve the same problem
- 5. 5 Selection sort Algorithm – Search through the list and find the smallest element – swap the smallest element with the first element – repeat starting at second element and find the second smallest element and so on
- 6. Program 6 for(i=0; i< n-1; i++) { /* find the index of min element in the unsorted a[j .. n-1] assume the min is the first element */ minIndex=i; // test against elements after j to find the smallest for(j=i+1; j< n; j++) { // if this element is less, then it is the new minimum if(A[j] < A[minIndex]) minIndex = j; } /* iMin is the index of the minimum element. Swap it with the current position */ if(minIndex!=i) { temp = A[i]; A[i]=A[minIndex]; A[minIndex] = temp; } }

- 8. 8 Applications of Selection Sort In embedded systems In basic mobiles
- 9. Advantages & Disadvantages Advantages Easy/simple implementation. Useful when no. of elements are less. Can be used when memory is less. Disadvantages It is slower when no of elements are more. Performance varies with initial order of Input 9
