Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Which of the following is a stable sorting algorithm?
  • Step 1: Understand what a stable sorting algorithm is. A stable sorting algorithm keeps the order of equal elements the same as they were in the original list.
  • Step 2: Look at the sorting algorithms provided in the question. Identify which ones are stable.
  • Step 3: Recognize that Merge Sort is a stable sorting algorithm because it does not change the order of equal elements.
  • Step 4: Conclude that Merge Sort is the correct answer to the question.
