These pages show 8 different sorting algorithms on 4 different initial conditions. These visualizations are intended to: Show how each algorithm operates. Show that there is no best sorting algorithm. Show the advantages and disadvantages of each algorithm. Show that worse-case asymptotic behavior is not always the deciding factor in choosing an algorithm. Show that the initial condition (input order and key distribution) affects performance as much as the algorithm choice. The ideal sorting algorithm would have the following properties: Stable: Equal keys aren't reordered. Operates in place,
