Bubble sort is also known as sinking sort.

Bubble sort is an "in place" algorithm. Other than a temporary "switch" variable, no extra space is required.

Binary sort and bubble sort are two.
You would sort the given elements of an array by a bubble sort or heap sort code!!
Bubble sort has no practical applications other than that it is often cited as an example of how not to write an algorithm. Insert sort is the best algorithm for sorting small lists of items and is often used in conjunction with quick sort to sort larger lists. Like insert sort, bubble sort is simple to implement and is a stable sort (equal items remain in the same order they were input). However, insert sort uses copy or move operations rather than swaps (which is actually three operations per swap) and is therefore quicker. The only time a bubble sort will work quicker than insert sort is when the array is already sorted, which renders the entire algorithm redundant. A modified algorithm that specifically tests if an array is sorted or not would be more efficient than a single-pass bubble sort.
The bubble sort algorithm can be applied to an array of characters. Every character can be translated to an integer equivalent via the ascii table
Bubble sort got its name because if you could watch the way your data was changing, on each iteration you would see the greatest number "bubble" to the top.Similarly, you could said that you would see the lowest number "sink" to the bottom.
This is false. The movement described is a disadvantageof bubble sort.
Bubble sort is often taught first because it's a really simple sort, and quite easy to comprehend. Specifically in Python you should never write your own sort, but use the sorted() builtin function.
