From 0 to 1 Data Structures & Algorithms in Java - Quick Sort

The video tutorial explains Quicksort, a divide and conquer sorting algorithm. It details how Quicksort uses a pivot to partition lists into smaller sublists, which are then sorted recursively. The tutorial includes a visualization of the algorithm, a step-by-step process, and a code explanation. It also discusses Quicksort's characteristics, such as its average case complexity, space requirements, and stability.
