Can you explain bubble sort with a visualization?

Can you explain bubble sort with a visualization?

Sure! Bubble sort is a simple sorting algorithm that repeatedly steps through the list, compares adjacent elements, and swaps them if they are in the wrong order. Would you like to see a visual representation of how it works?

Yes, that would be great! How does the visualization look?

In the visualization, you'll see a series of bars representing the elements of the array. As the algorithm progresses, the largest unsorted element 'bubbles' to the end of the array, and you'll see the bars swap positions.

Can you show me a step-by-step example?

Absolutely! Let's say we have the array [5, 3, 8, 4, 2]. The visualization will show each pass through the array, highlighting the comparisons and swaps until the array is sorted.

That sounds helpful! Can you provide a link to an interactive visualization?

Sure! You can check out this interactive bubble sort visualization at [link]. It allows you to see the sorting process in real-time!
