The gnome sort algorithm is a sorting algorithm that swaps adjacent elements if they're out of order, like bubble sort or cocktail sort, but instead of doing whole passes in one direction, it goes left if it swapped and right if it didn't. I'm gonna write the code for gnome sort and go through how it works step by step. I'll also show you what happens in different cases, like if it's already sorted, almost sorted or reversed.
