1. Bubble and Merge Sort are referred to as comparison sorts because the values of the two pieces of data are compared during each step. Why are the radix and bucket sort not comparison sorts?
Answer
The radix and bucket sort are not comparison sorts because they group piles of values together and sort them directly, and then they look at the whole value set.
2. Which sort do you think would be the fastest if you had to sort more than one deck of cards? Why?
Answer
Bubble sort, because it doesn't use comparison sort.
