Selection sorts perform numerous comparisons, but fewer data movements than other methods. See sort algorithm . (2) A search for specific data starting at the beginning of a file or list.

Design basic algorithms to implement sorting, selection, and hash functions in heap data structures; Course ... Duration: 10h. In this module the student will learn the very basics of algorithms ...

Sorting is so basic that algorithms are built into most standard libraries for programming languages. And, in the case of the C++ library used with the LLVM compiler, the code hasn't been touched ...
