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

The video tutorial explains insertion sort, a sorting algorithm that builds a sorted list one element at a time by comparing and inserting elements into their correct positions. It highlights the advantages of insertion sort over bubble sort, such as fewer comparisons and swaps, and its adaptive nature. The tutorial includes a detailed example of sorting a list, a code implementation, and a discussion on the algorithm's complexity and benefits.
