The sorted sublist will be created inplace at the left of the list. Santosh shaw from india pointed out that an earlier version of this page did not use a correct insertion sort algorithm since it did not run in on time when the list was already sorted.

Selection sort working explained lets understand the working of selection sort using an example. These functions assume input is a simple list of elements no list nesting. This algorithm will first find the smallest element in the array and swap it with the element in the first position, then it will find the second smallest element and swap it with the element in the second position, and it will keep on doing this until the entire array is sorted. In selection sort, sorting is done after selecting a particular smallest or largest element from an array and shifted it to a particular location in an array.
Selection sort is an algorithm that works by selecting the smallest element from the array and putting it at its correct position and then selecting the second smallest element and putting it at its correct position and so on for ascending order.
