What are some advanced sorting techniques in C#?

In C#, advanced sorting techniques include QuickSort, MergeSort, and HeapSort. Would you like to know how to implement one?

Yes, can you explain how QuickSort works?

QuickSort is a divide-and-conquer algorithm. It selects a 'pivot' element and partitions the array into two sub-arrays. Elements less than the pivot go to one side, and those greater go to the other. This process is then recursively applied to the sub-arrays.

What is the time complexity of QuickSort?

The average time complexity of QuickSort is O(n log n), but in the worst case, it can degrade to O(n²) if the pivot is poorly chosen.

Are there any optimizations for QuickSort?

Yes, some optimizations include using a randomized pivot, switching to Insertion Sort for small sub-arrays, and using tail recursion.
