Insertion Sort

• best: N, 1

• average, worst: N^2, 1

• swap last

function insertionSort(arr) {
	for (let i = 1; i < arr.length; i++) {
		const curr = arr[i];
		let idx = i;
		while (idx >= 1) {
			if (curr >= arr[idx - 1]) break; // vale at curr i, has to be compared with all previous values
			arr[idx] = arr[idx - 1]; // move backward by 1 step
			idx--;
		}
		arr[idx] = curr;
	}

	return arr;
}

function swap(arr, a, b) {
	[arr[b], arr[a]] = [arr[a], arr[b]];
}
// Do not edit the line below.
exports.insertionSort = insertionSort;

• swap every time

function insertionSort(arr) {
	for (let i = 1; i < arr.length; i++) {
		const curr = arr[i];
		let idx = i;
		while (idx >= 1) {
			if (curr >= arr[idx - 1]) break; // vale at curr i, has to be compared with all previous values
			swap(arr, idx, idx - 1);
			idx--;
		}
	}

	return arr;
}

function swap(arr, a, b) {
	[arr[b], arr[a]] = [arr[a], arr[b]];
}
// Do not edit the line below.
exports.insertionSort = insertionSort;

• simple

function insertionSort(arr) {
  
  for (let i = 1; i < arr.length; i++) {
    // const base = arr[i];
    let idx = i;
    while (idx > 0) {
      if (arr[idx - 1] <= arr[idx]) break;
      [arr[idx - 1], arr[idx]] = [arr[idx], arr[idx - 1]];
      idx--;
    }
    
  }
  
  return arr;
}

// Do not edit the line below.
