Bubble Sort Optimization: O(n) Best Case

Day 4 of DSA Practice : Today I learned about Bubble Sort and understood how we can optimize it step by step. 🔹 Approaches Learned: Basic Bubble Sort: O(n²) Optimized Bubble Sort (Early Exit using a flag): Best Case O(n), Worst Case O(n²) ✅ Key Idea (Bubble Sort): We repeatedly compare adjacent elements and swap them if they’re in the wrong order. After each pass, the largest element “bubbles up” to the end of the array. 🚀 Optimization (Early Exit): If in any pass no swaps happen, the array is already sorted — so we stop early. ⚡ Complexity: Time: Worst O(n²), Best O(n) (already sorted with optimization) Space: O(1) This sorting method is great for learning sorting basics and understanding swapping-based sorting. #DSA #Programming #CompetitiveProgramming #Java #Cplusplus #Python #Learning
