Bubble Sorting Quiz

What is bubble sort?

• Bubble sort is a complex sorting algorithm.

• Bubble sort is a simple sorting algorithm.

• Bubble sort is used for searching data.

• Bubble sort is an encryption algorithm.

How does bubble sort work?

• Bubble sort compares adjacent elements and swaps them if they are in the wrong order.

• Bubble sort compares elements in groups and swaps them if they are in the wrong order.

• Bubble sort compares elements in reverse order and swaps them if they are in the wrong order.

• Bubble sort compares elements randomly and swaps them if they are in the wrong order.

What is the time complexity of bubble sort in the worst case?

• O(n log n)

• O(n^2)

• O(log n)

• O(n)

What is the time complexity of bubble sort in the best case?

• O(n^2)

• O(log n)

• O(1)

• O(n)

What is the time complexity of bubble sort in the average case?

• O(n^2)

• O(1)

• O(log n)

• O(n)

What is a comparison-based sorting algorithm?

• An algorithm that sorts a list of elements by randomly rearranging them.

• An algorithm that sorts a list of elements by dividing it into sublists and then merging them.

• An algorithm that sorts a list of elements by counting the number of occurrences of each element.

• An algorithm that sorts a list of elements by comparing pairs of elements and swapping them if they are in the wrong order.

Is bubble sort a stable sorting algorithm?

• Not sure

• Sometimes

• Yes

• No

What is the main advantage of bubble sort?

• Accuracy and precision

• Simplicity and ease of implementation

• Flexibility and adaptability

• Efficiency and speed

What is the main disadvantage of bubble sort?

• Inefficiency for large data sets

• Not suitable for sorting strings

• Requires additional memory space

• Does not guarantee a stable sort

Can bubble sort be used for large datasets? Why or why not?

• Yes, bubble sort can be used for large datasets because it has a time complexity of O(n^2) which is efficient for large datasets.

• No
