To write a program to perform selection sort and insertion sort using python programming.
- Hardware – PCs
- Anaconda – Python 3.7 Installation / Moodle-Code Runner
- Set the first unsorted element as the minimum
- For each of the unsorted elements, check if the element < current minimum.
- If yes, set the element as the new minimum.
- Swap minimum with first unsorted position.
- Repeat the steps 2 and 3 for all the elements in the array.
- Set the first element as sorted element j.
- For each unsorted element X, check if current sorted element j >X.
- If yes, move sorted element to the right by 1.
- Break the loop and insert X.
- Repeat the steps 2 to 4 for sorting all the elements in the array.
i) Selection Sort
def selection_sort(nums):
for i in range(len(nums)):
lowest_value_index = i
for j in range(i+1,len(nums)):
if nums[j]<nums[lowest_value_index]:
lowest_value_index=j
nums[i],nums[lowest_value_index]=nums[lowest_value_index],nums[i]
list_of_nums = eval(input())
selection_sort(list_of_nums)
print(list_of_nums)
ii) Insertion Sort
def selection_sort(nums):
for i in range(len(nums)):
lowest_value_index = i
for j in range(i+1, len(nums)):
if nums[j] < nums[lowest_value_index]:
lowest_value_index = j
nums[i], nums[lowest_value_index] = nums[lowest_value_index], nums[i]
list_of_nums = eval(input())
selection_sort(list_of_nums)
print(list_of_nums)
Thus the program is written to perform selection sort and insertion sort using python programming.
