Selection Sort Visualization

The video tutorial explains the concept of selection sort, a sorting algorithm that selects the minimum element from an unsorted list and swaps it with the first element. The process is repeated for the remaining unsorted elements. The tutorial compares selection sort with bubble sort, highlighting that selection sort is more efficient as it requires fewer swaps. The video also provides a step-by-step demonstration of the selection sort process, emphasizing the importance of minimizing swaps to improve efficiency. The tutorial concludes with a brief mention of implementing selection sort in code.

What is the first step in the selection sort algorithm?

How does the selection sort algorithm determine the new minimum value?

Explain the process of swapping the minimum value with the base value in selection sort.

What is the difference in swapping elements between selection sort and bubble sort?

What is the maximum number of swaps that can occur in selection sort?
