insetion sort code code example

Example 1: java insertion sort

/**
* Insertion sort algorithm, O(n^2) time complexity.
*/
public static void insertionSort(int[] arr) {
  int n = arr.length;
  for(int i = 1; i < n; i++) {
    int key = arr[i];
    int j = i - 1;
    //shift until you find the position to place the element 'key'
    while(j >= 0 && arr[j] > key) {
      arr[j+1] = arr[j];
      j--;
    }
    //place element 'key' in the correct position in the sorted part of the array
    arr[j+1] = key;
  }
}

Example 2: insertion sort c++

void InsertionSort(int* A, int size)
{

  int i, key, j;  
    for (i = 1; i < N; i++) 
    {  
        key = A[i];  
        j = i - 1;  
  
        /* Move elements of arr[0..i-1], that are  
        greater than key, to one position ahead  
        of their current position */
        while (j >= 0 && A[j] > key) 
        {  
            A[j + 1] = A[j];  
            j = j - 1;  
        }  
        A[j + 1] = key;  
    }
