2 2 votes Consider the QuickSort algorithm with the last element chosen as the pivot. If the goal is to sort the given array \(a = [30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80]\) in ascending order, how many swaps will occur during the execution of the algorithm?

1 1 vote In quick sort, every iteration attempts to move the elements larger than the pivot to the right side of the pivot elements. Whereas smaller elements are to the left of the pivot elements. In the given question since the last element is chosen as the pivot and the elements are in sorted order no elements will change their place after every interaction. so there will be no swapping of elements. The orignal question was |60|70|80|90|100|The answer will be 0 (Zero). gate.datascience_ai answered Feb 19, 2024 gate.datascience_ai comment Share Follow 0 reply Please log in or register to add a comment.
