Solution

Bubble Sort works by repeatedly swapping adjacent elements if they are in the wrong order. Here's a step-by-step explanation:

  1. Start at the beginning of the array.
  2. Compare the first and second elements. If the first element is greater than the second, swap them.
  3. Move to the next pair of elements (second and third). Again, if the first in the pair is greater than the second, swap them.
  4. Continue this process for each pair of adjacent elements in the array.
  5. Once you reach the end of the array, start again from the beginning.
  6. Repeat this process until you can traverse the entire array without having to make any swaps. At this point, the array is fully sorted.

This method gets its name, "Bubble Sort", because with each full pass through the array, the largest unsorted element "bubbles up" to its correct position.

Bubble Sort is the simplest sorting algorithm that works by repeatedly swapping the adjacent elements if they are in the wrong order. The problem with bubble sort is its worst case scenario. When the smallest element is in the last position, then it takes more time to sort in ascending order, but takes less time to sort in descending order.An array is called beautiful if all the elements of the array are in either ascending or descending order. Given an array of numbers, find the minimum swap operations required to make the array beautiful.
