Bubble sort is easy to program, slower, iterative. Compares neighboring numbers swaps it if required and continues this procedure until there are no more swaps
Quick Sort is little difficult to program, Fastest, Recursive. Pivot number is selected, other numbers are compared with it and shifted to the right of number or left depending upon criteria again this method is applied to the left and right list generated to the pivot point number. Select pivot point among that list.

By understanding the time and space complexities of sorting algorithms, you will better understand how a particular algorithm will scale with increased data to sort. * Bubble sort is O(N2). The number of Ops should come out <= 512 * 512 = 262144 * Quicksort is O(2N log N) on the average but can degenerate to (N2)/2 in the worst case (try the ordered data set on quicksort). Quicksort is recursive and needs a lot of stack space. * Shell sort (named for Mr. Shell) is less than O(N4/3) for this implementation. Shell sort is iterative and doesn't require much extra memory. * Merge sort is O( N log N) for all data sets, so while it is slower than the best case for quicksort, it doesn't have degenerate cases. It needs additional storage equal to the size of the input array and it is recursive so it needs stack space. * Heap sort is guaranteed to be O(N log N), doesn't degenerate like quicksort and doesn't use extra memory like mergesort, but its implementation has more operations so on average its not as good as quicksort.
Bucket sort is a sorting algorithm that works by partitioning an array into a finite number of buckets. Each bucket is then sorted individually, either using a different sorting algorithm, or by recursively applying the bucket sorting algorithm. A variation of this method called the single buffered count sort is faster than the quick sort and takes about the same time to run on any set of data.
If there was a way, it would be the new insertion sort! Theoretically you could reduce the time by using a linked list and searching to the position it needs to be inserted and inserting it. In practice however you would be better off simply using a different sort, especially if you don't want your data in a linked list. Selection sort is better when writing is expensive. Quicksort and Mergesort are faster on large data sets.
Linked lists are not ideally suited to the quicksort algorithm because linked lists do not provide constant-time random access. The most efficient means of implementing quicksort upon a list is to move all the elements to an array, sort the array using quicksort, then move the elements back into a list. This increases the complexity by O(n*2), which is costly, but is more than compensated for by the improved efficiency of sorting an array.
Insertion sort is a simple sorting algorithm that builds the final sorted array one element at a time. Quicksort is a more complex algorithm that divides the array into smaller sub-arrays and sorts them recursively. Quicksort is generally more efficient for sorting data, as it has an average time complexity of O(n log n) compared to O(n2) for insertion sort.
Radix sort and quicksort are both sorting algorithms, but they differ in their approach and efficiency. Radix sort is a non-comparative sorting algorithm that sorts numbers by their individual digits, making it efficient for sorting large numbers. Quicksort, on the other hand, is a comparative sorting algorithm that divides the list into smaller sublists based on a pivot element, making it efficient for sorting smaller lists. In terms of performance, radix sort has a time complexity of O(nk), where n is the number of elements and k is the number of digits, while quicksort has an average time complexity of O(n log n). Overall, radix sort is more efficient for sorting large numbers with a fixed number of digits, while quicksort is more efficient for general-purpose sorting.
Quicksort is a popular algorithm to sort items in software, aiming at completion in the smallest number of steps (shortest time) possible.
Quicksort is faster than other algorithms, though it is a comparison sort, not a stable sort. It uses O(n log n) comparisons to sort n terms. It works well with cache.
The recurrence relation for the quicksort algorithm is T(n) T(k) T(n-k-1) O(n), where k is the position of the pivot element. This relation affects the time complexity of quicksort by determining the number of comparisons and swaps needed to sort the elements. The average time complexity of quicksort is O(n log n), but in the worst-case scenario, it can be O(n2) if the pivot selection is not optimal.

For small datasets, insertion sort is generally more efficient than quicksort. This is because insertion sort has a lower overhead and performs well on small lists due to its simplicity and low time complexity.

Quicksort is one of the fastest sorting algorithms available, but it may not always be the absolute fastest depending on the specific data being sorted. Other algorithms like merge sort and heap sort can also be very efficient in certain situations.
