how insertion sort works code example

Example 1: insertion sort python

def insertion_sort(lst):
    for i in range(1,len(lst)):
        while i > 0 and lst[i - 1] >lst[i] :
            lst[i - 1], lst[i] = lst[i] , lst[i - 1]
            ## swapping
            i = i -1
    return lst
print(insertion_sort([4,2,2,3,4,3,1,1,1,2]))

Example 2: insertion sort java

Insertion program
public class InsertionSortExample
{
   public void sort(int[] arrNum)
   {
      int number = arrNum.length;
      for(int a = 1; a < number; ++a)
      {
         int keyValue = arrNum[a];
         int b = a - 1;
         while(b >= 0 && arrNum[b] > keyValue)
         {
            arrNum[b + 1] = arrNum[b];
            b = b - 1;
         }
         arrNum[b + 1] = keyValue;
      }
   }
   static void displayArray(int[] arrNum)
   {
      int num = arrNum.length;
      for(int a = 0; a < num; ++a)
      {
         System.out.print(arrNum[a] + " ");
      }
      System.out.println();
   }
   public static void main(String[] args)
   {
      int[] arrInput = { 50, 80, 10, 30, 90, 60 };
      InsertionSortExample obj = new InsertionSortExample();
      obj.sort(arrInput);
      displayArray(arrInput);
   }
}

Example 3: program for insertion sort

# another method similar to insertion sort

def insertionSort(arr):
    for i in range(1, len(arr)):
        k = i
        for j in range(i-1, -1, -1):
            if arr[k] < arr[j]:  # if the key element is smaller than elements before it
                temp = arr[k]  # swapping the two numbers
                arr[k] = arr[j]
                arr[j] = temp

                k = j  # assigning the current index of key value to k
        

arr = [5, 2, 9, 1, 10, 19, 12, 11, 18, 13, 23, 20, 27, 28, 24, -2]

print("original array \n", arr)
insertionSort(arr)
print("\nSorted array \n", arr)

Example 4: insertion sort

// Por ter uma complexidade alta,
// não é recomendado para um conjunto de dados muito grande.
// Complexidade: O() / O(n**2) / O(n^2)

// @see https://www.cs.usfca.edu/~galles/visualization/ComparisonSort.html

function insertionSort(vetor) {
    let current;
    for (let i = 1; i < vetor.length; i += 1) {
        let j = i - 1;
        current = vetor[i];
        while (j >= 0 && current < vetor[j]) {
            vetor[j + 1] = vetor[j];
            j--;
        }
        vetor[j + 1] = current;
    }
    return vetor;
}

insertionSort([1, 2, 5, 8, 3, 4])

Example 5: insertion sort

#include <bits/stdc++.h>

using namespace std; 

void insertionSort(int arr[], int n)  
{  
    int i, temp, j;  
    for (i = 1; i < n; i++) 
    {  
        temp = arr[i];  
        j = i - 1;  

        while (j >= 0 && arr[j] > temp) 
        {  
            arr[j + 1] = arr[j];  
            j = j - 1;  
        }  
        arr[j + 1] = temp;  
    }  
}

int main()  
{  
    int arr[] = { 1,4,2,5,333,3,5,7777,4,4,3,22,1,4,3,666,4,6,8,999,4,3,5,32 };  
    int n = sizeof(arr) / sizeof(arr[0]);  

    insertionSort(arr, n);  

    for(int i = 0; i < n; i++){
        cout << arr[i] << " ";
    }

    return 0;  
}

Example 6: insertion sort

function insertionSortRicorsivo(array A, int n)
     if n>1
        insertionSortRicorsivo(A,n-1)
        value ← A[n-1]
        j ← n-2
        while j >= 0 and A[j] > value 
         do A[j + 1] ← A[j]
            j ← j-1
        A[j+1] ← value
