Bubble Sort. Terrible in practice, but probably the first algorithm that made me understand what “sorting” actually means. I respect it for that. | ||

There are some simple ways to improve bubble sort. The first is to move in two directions. The second is to first start comparing elements at a large distance than one and reduce the distance on how often element needed to be swapped. | ||
