पर्याय

• Selection sort

Answer 1

Selection sort is an algorithm that requires minimum number of swaps.

Explanation:

Selection sort is an in place method that requires the fewest swaps since we constantly chose the smallest element and place it in the proper location, therefore the total number of swaps is n-1 in the worst case. As a result, selection sort performs the fewest swaps when compared to other algorithms.
