Selection Sort: Background & Python Code

In this lesson we’ll introduce the Selection Sort algorithm, a very simple approach to sorting lists and arrays. After covering the basics, we’ll open up a coding editor and implement the algorithm in Python, at the end we’ll benchmark the performance of the algorithm against various other sorting approaches, including our Bubble Sort from the prior video.
