?? Day #56 of My 365 Days Coding Challenge!

?? A Personal Reflection:

Sorting is like choosing the best player for a team—you look for the best candidate and place them in the right position. Selection Sort does exactly that by repeatedly selecting the smallest element and placing it in its correct position.

?? What I Did Today:

I implemented Selection Sort, an intuitive yet inefficient sorting algorithm that works by repeatedly finding the minimum value and swapping it into place.

?? Key Learning:

• Concept: Finds the smallest element in each pass and places it at the start.
• Time Complexity: Always O(n2) (not efficient for large datasets).
• Best used when memory swaps are costly but comparisons are cheap.

? Extra Touch:

? Fewer swaps compared to Bubble Sort.

? Easily extendable to descending order sorting.

? No extra memory usage (in-place sorting).

?? Your Turn:

Modify the function to sort the array in descending order instead of ascending!
