INSERTION SORT *

DECREASE AND CONQUER Reduce problem instance to smaller instance of the same problem Solve smaller instance Extend solution of smaller instance to obtain solution to original instance Can be implemented either top-down (recursion) or bottom-up (Iteratively) So called as inductive or incremental approach (bottom-up) *

Three Types of Decrease and Conquer Decrease by a constant (usually by 1): insertion sort graph traversal algorithms (DFS and BFS) topological sorting algorithms for generating permutations, subsets Decrease by a constant factor (usually by half) binary search Algorithm exponentiation by squaring multiplication à la russe Fake Coin Problem Variable-size decrease Euclid’s algorithm selection by partition Nim-like games *

Three variations of Decrease & Conquer Decrease by one: Decrease –by-a constant-factor: Variable Size Decrease *

Decrease-(by one)-and-conquer technique. Subproblem of size n –1 Solution to the Sub-Problem Solution to the original problem problem of size n *

Decrease-(by half)-and-conquer technique Subproblem of size n/2 Solution to the Sub-Problem Solution to the original problem Problem of Size n *

Insertion Sort Sorting a list by inserting element at appropriate position. Strategy: In every pass, an element is compared with all its previous elements. If at some point it is found that the element can be inserted at a position then space is created by shifting other elements one position to the right and insert the element at the suitable position. The steps are repeated for all elements in the array. *

Insertion Sort - Real life example An example of an insertion sort occurs in everyday life while playing cards. To sort the cards in your hand you extract a card, shift the remaining cards, and then insert the extracted card in the correct place. This process is repeated until all the cards are in the correct sequence. *

To insert 12, we need to make room for it by moving first 36 and then 24. Example 6 10 24 12 36 *

Insertion Sort - EXAMPLE *

Insertion Sort - EXAMPLE *

Code for Insertion Sort void main() { int n,i, j, temp,a[10]; //input number of elements n and elements for array a printf(“Enter number of elements\n”); scanf(“%d”,&n); printf(“Enter the array elements\n”); for (i = 0 ; i < n ; i++) scanf(“%d”,&a[i]); *

Code for Insertion Sort for(i=1; i<=n-1; i++) { temp = a[ i ]; j = i -1; while ( j >=0 && temp< a[ j ]) { a[ j+1 ] = a[ j ]; j = j -1; } a[ j + 1 ] = temp; } printf(“Sorted array elements\n”); for (i = 0 ; i < n ; i++) printf(“%d\n”,a[i]); } *

Insertion Sort Advantage Relatively simple Easy to implement Disadvantage Not efficient to operate with a large list or input size. *

SCENARIO QUESTION-INSERTION SORT Every time a card game player arranges his card before the start of the game i.e., Imagine a person Ram is playing cards where he can add each card into its appropriate position and also he can add only one card at a time. So what type of sorting technique is best suited for the above one and also perform sorting for the following numbers 15,34,28,11,36,20,43,45 using above sorting method. Write the function for the above mentioned sorting technique in C. *

Analysis of Insertion sort (Worst Case) *

COMPLEXITY ANALYSIS OF INSERTION SORT The space complexity for Insertion Sort is O(1) C worst ( n ) = n ( n -1)/2 ∈ Θ( n 2 ) C avg ( n ) ≈ n 2 /4 ∈ Θ( n 2 ) C best ( n ) = n - 1 ∈ Θ( n ) (also fast on almost sorted arrays) Space efficiency: O(1) Sorting in-place: in-place Stability: yes *

FEATURES OF INSERTION SORT It is efficient for smaller data sets, but very inefficient for larger lists. Insertion Sort is adaptive, that means it reduces its total number of steps if given a partially sorted list, hence it increases its efficiency. It is better than Selection Sort and Bubble Sort algorithms. Its space complexity is less, like Bubble Sorting, insertion sort also requires a single additional memory space. It is Stable, as it does not change the relative order of elements with equal keys *

APPLICATIONS Mainly used for scheduling jobs from the given dependencies among jobs. In computer science, applications of this type arise in instruction scheduling, ordering of formula cell evaluation when recomputing formula values in spreadsheets, logic synthesis, determining the order of compilation tasks to perform in make files, data serialization, and resolving symbol dependencies in linkers. *
