What you will learn
What is sorting and why do we need it?
Sorting data in different data structures
Algorithm and implementation of different sorting algorithms
Understand essential patterns behind common interview problems
Intuition through visual explanation of algorithms
Hands on practical experience in a setup free coding environment
Requirements
This is a complete course and assumes that you know nothing about sorting algorithms but are familiar with some basic foundational topics and data structures in any programming language.
- Basic knowledge of programming in any language
- Basic knowledge of functions, classes and memory management
- You have completed courses on array and linked lists
- You have completed courses on recursion
Overview
Algorithms are used extensively in software development, and sorting is the most fundamental. Irrespective of the language, framework, or system that you use, you will always be using some sorting algorithm under the hood in some form or other.

Fundamentals
This course teaches you the fundamentals of sorting algorithms and how they work. It provides you with code implementations and detailed explanations of different sorting algorithms in the most intuitive way. We will explore various steps to give you a deep insight into how different sorting algorithms work. This will help you thoroughly understand the most critical algorithm of all.
Problems Solving
This interactive course involves high-quality problems and is deeply focused on problem-solving. It bridges the gap between theoretical concepts and common interview problems by explaining the most common interview problems on sorting. This will help you gain confidence and understand how to convert your learning into action. By the end of the course, you will be pretty confident that you can solve any sorting problem thrown at you.
