What are the different sorting techniques available in JavaScript?

Question

Accepted Answer

Some of the sorting techniques available in JavaScript include bubble sort, insertion sort, selection sort, merge sort, and quick sort.

Bubble sort: repeatedly steps through the list, compares adjacent elements, and swaps them if they are in the wrong order.
Insertion sort: builds the final sorted array one item at a time by inserting each element into its correct position.
Selection sort: repeatedly finds the minimum element from the unsorted part of the array and swaps it with the first unsorted element.
Merge sort: divides the array into two halves, sorts each half, and then merges the two sorted halves.
Quick sort: picks an element as a pivot and partitions the array around the pivot, then recursively sorts the sub-arrays.
