An explanation of the insertion sort algorithm, its implementation, and its complexity analysis. It also compares the number of comparisons and exchanges required in the best, average, and worst cases. Additionally, the document briefly mentions bubble sort and selection sort.

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

at each iteration, the array is divided in two sub-arrays:

Alg.: INSERTION-SORT (A)
for j ← 2 to n do key ← A[ j ] Insert A[ j ] into the sorted sequence A[1.. j -1] i ← j - 1 while i > 0 and A[i] > key do A[i + 1] ← A[i] i ← i – 1 A[i + 1] ← key
Invariant : at the start of the for loop the elements in A[1.. j-1] are in sorted order
