Quick Sort
Quick Sort :
Author(s) : Tony Hoare Date : 1959Quicksort is an efficient, general-purpose sorting algorithm. Quicksort is a divide-and-conquer algorithm. It works by selecting a 'pivot' element from the array and partitioning the other elements into two sub-arrays, according to whether they are less than or greater than the pivot. For this reason, it is sometimes called partition-exchange sort.
| Time Complexity | O(n log n) |
| Best Case | O(n log n) |
| Worst Case | O(n²) |
| Space Complexity | O(log n) |
| Stable | No |
