Week 8/9 - Sorting Algorithms

Bubbles Sorting of a List
This post is relative to the period Oct 28 - Nov 8.

The course material finally wandered into sorting territory. I've nearly no past experience with sorting algorithms, except for a specific instance when I had to implement a bubbles sorting algorithm.

I finally took the initiative to learn big Oh notation; I'm still not confident in identifying factorial and logarithmically complex functions. There were some great resources I found here.

On a side-note I just found out Valve released an API for their game Dota2, which can be used to obtain game related statistics. I'm planning on releasing a phone application or a website which can lookup some of these stats. It would be a fun, useful software to write.
