Bubble Sort Implementation in Python

Bubble sort is one of the simplest algorithms to start learning Data structures and algorithms. It's a comparison-based algorithm in which adjacent elements are compared and swapped in order. This algorithm is suitable for small dataset.

It's not a very widely used sorting algorithm but is more often used as a teaching tool to introduce the concept of sorting.

Time Complexity: O(n2)

How does Bubble Sort work?

• compare the first and the second element. If the first element is greater than the second element, they are swapped.

• Now, Compare second and third elements. Swap them to get them in order.

• Repeat the process until the last element.

• In each iteration, the comparison takes place up to the last unsorted element.

• The array is sorted when all the unsorted elements are placed at their correct positions.
