The document analyzes the selection sort and optimized bubble sort algorithms. It discusses:
- The selection sort algorithm works by finding the minimum element in the unsorted portion of the array and swapping it into place at each iteration.
- Mathematical analysis shows the best case time complexity of selection sort is O(n^2) and the worst case is also O(n^2) due to the algorithm always making comparisons.
- The optimized bubble sort algorithm is also analyzed, showing it has a best case time complexity of O(n) and worst case of O(n^2), depending on the initial order of the elements.
