  • Ans. 

    Quick Sort is a popular sorting algorithm that uses divide and conquer strategy to sort elements in an array.

    • Quick Sort picks a pivot element and partitions the array around the pivot.

    • It recursively sorts the sub-arrays on either side of the pivot.

    • The process continues until the entire array is sorted.

    • Example: Given array [5, 2, 9, 3, 7], after Quick Sort it becomes [2, 3, 5, 7, 9].
