Sorting algorithms — finally explained the visual way. We take one messy array,
[7, 3, 5, 2, 8, 1], and watch 5 different algorithms race to sort it. No dry theory,
no scary math — just clean animations and simple intuition.
By the end you'll understand exactly how Bubble, Selection, Insertion, Merge, and
Quick Sort actually work — plus how to compare them by time, space, and stability,
and which one to reach for in real life.
Perfect for students, placement & interview prep, and self-taught programmers.

🎯 WHAT YOU'LL LEARN
• What sorting is and why it matters
• Time complexity & space complexity — explained visually
• Big-O notation without the headache
• Stability, comparisons, and swaps
• The exact use case for each algorithm
• When Quick Sort drops to O(n²) — and why pivots matter
📌 RUNNING EXAMPLE: [7, 3, 5, 2, 8, 1] → [1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 8]
📊 QUICK COMPARISON
• Bubble — O(n²) | O(1) | stable | learning the basics
• Selection — O(n²) | O(1) | not stable | when swaps are costly
• Insertion — O(n²)/O(n) | O(1) | stable | small or nearly sorted data
• Merge — O(n log n) | O(n) | stable | predictable / linked lists
• Quick — O(n log n)* | O(log n) | not stable | fast in-memory sorting
*worst case O(n²) with bad pivots
