📖 Definition: A sorting algorithm is a method for reorganizing a large number of items into a specific order, such as numerical (highest-to-lowest) or lexicographical.
🚀 Applications: Used in many applications e.g. database optimization, enabling binary search and data compression.
💡 Fact: Modern languages like Python and Java use hybrid algorithms (like Timsort/Powersort) that combine the best parts of Merge and Insertion sort!
