Michael Kurniawan 1910403011 University of Cincinnati Sorting Algorithm  Given an array of random integers, create an algorithm to sort the array using the quicksort algorithm.. Please provide the steps of the algorithm to perform sorting using the quicksort algorithm. Answer : The quicksort algorithm's phases for sorting are as follows: 1. 2. 3. 4. Pick a critical component from the list. Any component in the array can serve as this, although most often the middle member is used. Divide the collection into two oblivious-arrays with the left sub-array's elements all being equal to or smaller than to the focal element, and the right sub-array's elements all being greater than the element that constitutes the pivot. Continue with steps 1 and 2 on each sub-array iteratively until there is only one element left in each sub-array. Reconcate the sorted sub-arrays to obtain the whole sorted array. The Python code for the quicksort algorithm is provided here: The quicksort method in the code above accepts an array as input and uses the “quicksort” algorithm to produce a sorted array. The code initially determines if the array's length is one at most. The array has already been sorted and returned if it is. If not, a pivot element from the array is selected. (in this case, the middle element is chosen). List comprehensions are then used to divide the array into left, center, and right sub-arrays. The function then concatenates the sorted sub-arrays back together to create the final sorted array by iteratively applying the quicksort algorithm to the left and right sub-arrays.
