Question

In a selection sort, the inner loop is executed n - 2 times for every pass through the outer loop.

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In a selection sort, the inner loop runs for n-1 times during the first pass, then n-2 times for the second pass, and so on, decreasing by one with each pass through the outer loop, not consistently n-2 times for every pass.
