Selection Sort
The algorithm works by repeatedly finding the minimum element from the unsorted part of the array and putting it at the beginning.
def selection_sort(X):
for i in range(len(X)):
min_index = i
for j in range(i+1, len(X)):
if X[j] < X[min_index]: # Look Here
min_index = j
X[i], X[min_index] = X[min_index], X[i]
# Example usage:
A = [1, 3, 9, 5, 4, 0]
selection_sort(A)
print("Sorted list =", A)
"""
[0, 1, 3, 4, 5, 9]
"""
