Hi, I have a sorting algorithm as follows. My question is, which sorting algorithm is this? I thought it was bubble sort, but it does not do multiple runs. Any idea? Thanks!
//sorting in descending order
struct node
{
int value;
node* NEXT;
}
//Assume HEAD pointer denotes the first element in the //linked list
// only change the values…don’t have to change the //pointers
Sort( Node *Head)
{
node* first,second,temp;
first= Head;
while(first!=null)
{
second=first->NEXT;
while(second!=null)
{
if(first->value < second->value)
{
temp = new node();
temp->value=first->value;
first->value=second->value;
second->value=temp->value;
delete temp;
}
second=second->NEXT;
}
first=first->NEXT;
}
}
