Direct selection sort is similar to direct insertion sort. Both divide the data into ordered area and unordered area. The difference is that direct insertion sort inserts the first element of the unordered area directly into the ordered area to form A larger ordered area; direct selection sorting selects the smallest element from the unordered area and places it directly at the end of the ordered area. Sample code uploaded to: https://github.com/chenyufeng1991/SelectSort
The algorithm is described as follows:
(1) Initially, the array is all unordered and the area is a[0...n-1]. Let i = 0.
(2) Select the smallest element in the unordered area a[i...n-1] and exchange it with a[i]. After the exchange, a[0...i] forms an ordered area.
(3) i and repeat the second step until i == n-1, the sorting is completed.
The implementation is as follows:
