Python 3: Project-based Python, Algorithms, Data Structures - Implement merge function - part 3

The video tutorial introduces the Quicksort algorithm, highlighting its popularity and use of the divide and conquer strategy. It explains the performance of Quicksort, achieving N log N in best and average cases, but N squared in the worst case, which is rare. The tutorial compares Quicksort with Mergesort, noting that Quicksort often has better actual runtime. The video then details the Quicksort mechanism, including selecting a pivot and sorting elements around it. Finally, it concludes with a preview of the next video, which will cover the implementation of Quicksort.

Describe how the Quicksort algorithm handles equal elements during sorting.
