Classic sorting algorithm-bubble sort

Classic sorting algorithm-bubble sort

The principle is to compare adjacent numbers in ascending order or in ascending order,

After such a trip, the largest or smallest number is switched to the last one,

Then compare and exchange data from the beginning until the last and second digits are over.

The example is sorted in ascending order,

Original array to be sorted| 6 | 2 | 4 | 1 | 5 | 9 |

First sort (External Loop)

For the first time, compare 6> 2 switches (inner loop)

Status before switch| 6 | 2 |4 | 1 | 5 | 9 |

Status After switch| 2 | 6 |4 | 1 | 5 | 9 |

 

The second comparison, 6> 4 exchanges

Status before switching | 2| 6 | 4 |1 | 5 | 9 |

Status After switch | 2| 4 | 6 |1 | 5 | 9 |

The third comparison, 6> 1 Exchange

Status before switching | 2 | 4| 6 | 1 |5 | 9 |

Status After switch | 2 | 4| 1 | 6 |5 | 9 |

Comparison of the fourth time, 6> 5 exchanges

Status before switching | 2 | 4 | 1| 6 | 5 |9 |

Status After switch | 2 | 4 | 1| 5 | 6 |9 |

For the fifth comparison, do not swap for 6 <9

Status before switching | 2 | 4 | 1 | 5| 6 | 9 |

Status After switch | 2 | 4 | 1 | 5| 6 | 9 |

 

Second sort (External Loop)

For the first time, the comparison is 2 <4 without exchange.

Status before switch| 2 | 4 |1 | 5 | 6 | 9 |

Status After switch| 2 | 4 |1 | 5 | 6 | 9 |

 

The second comparison, 4> 1 Exchange

Status before switching | 2| 4 | 1 |5 | 6 | 9 |
Status After switch | 2| 1 | 4 |5 | 6 | 9 |

 

Comparison of the third time in pairs, 4 <5 without exchange

Status before switching | 2 | 1| 4 | 5 |6 | 9 |
Status After switch | 2 | 1| 4 | 5 |6 | 9 |

 

For the fourth comparison, do not exchange 5 <6

Status before switching | 2 | 1 | 4| 5 | 6 |9 |

Status After switch | 2 | 1 | 4| 5 | 6 |9 |

Third sort (External Loop)

The first two-to-one comparison 2> 1 Exchange

Status After switch| 2 | 1 |4 | 5 | 6 | 9 |

Status After switch| 1 | 2 |4 | 5 | 6 | 9 |

 

For the second comparison, 2 <4 is not exchanged.

Status After switch | 1| 2 | 4 |5 | 6 | 9 |
Status After switch | 1| 2 | 4 |5 | 6 | 9 |

 

Comparison of the third time in pairs, 4 <5 without exchange

Status After switch | 1 | 2| 4 | 5 |6 | 9 |
Status After switch | 1 | 2| 4 | 5 |6 | 9 |

The fourth sorting (External Loop) has no exchange

The fifth sorting (External Loop) has no exchange

After sorting is completed, the final result is output 1 2 4 5 6 9.
