44. Algorithms - Bubble Sort Algorithm Quiz

What is the key feature of the bubble sort algorithm?

• It only works for large data sets

• It compares each item with the next one

• It compares each item with the previous one

• It sorts ordered lists of items

What happens when no more swaps need to be made in the bubble sort algorithm?

• It rearranges the list randomly

• It swaps the first and last items

• The algorithm stops

• It starts comparing from the beginning again

Which item is bubbled up to the end of the list in the bubble sort algorithm?

• The middle item

• The smallest item

• The first item

• The largest item

What is the main advantage of the bubble sort algorithm?

• It always produces the most optimal result

• It is easy to implement

• It can handle any type of data

• It is very efficient for large data sets

In the given data set of breakfast cereals, which item should be at the bottom after sorting in alphabetical order?

• Crunchy Nut Clusters

• Cornflakes

• Sugar Puffs

• Weetabix

What is the purpose of the first pass in the bubble sort algorithm?

• To compare the last two items

• To swap the first and last items

• To compare the first two items

• To compare all items in the list

What is the initial value of the swap flag in the bubble sort algorithm?

• False

• Zero

• One

• True

Which sorting algorithm is suitable for large numbers of items?

• Bubble sort

• Merge sort

• Insertion sort

• Quick sort

What is the memory footprint of the bubble sort algorithm?

• It decreases as the algorithm executes

• It increases as the algorithm executes

• It is unpredictable

• It remains constant throughout the execution

What is the difficulty level of programming the merge sort algorithm compared to the bubble sort algorithm?

• Neither of them is difficult to program

• Merge sort is easier to program

• Bubble sort is easier to program

• Both are equally difficult to program
