In computer science, bogosort (also known as permutation sort, stupid sort, or slowsort) is a highly inefficient sorting algorithm based on the generate and test paradigm.
Which sorting algorithm is most efficient?
Quicksort. Quicksort is one of the most efficient sorting algorithms, and this makes of it one of the most used as well. The first thing to do is to select a pivot number, this number will separate the data, on its left are the numbers smaller than it and the greater numbers on the right.
Which is worst sorting algorithm?
Bogosort The universally-acclaimed worst sorting algorithm is Bogosort, sometimes called Monkey Sort or Random Sort, for reasons we’ll see shortly. Bogosort develops from the idea that, in probability theory, if a certain phenomenon is possible, then it will eventually happen.
