Python: Sort a given collection of numbers and its length in ascending order using Recursive Insertion Sort
29. Recursive Insertion Sort
Write a Python program to sort a given collection of numbers and their length in ascending order using Recursive Insertion Sort.
Sample Solution:
Python Code:
Sample Output:
Original list: [4, 3, 5, 1, 2] After applying Recursive Insertion Sort the said list becomes: [1, 2, 3, 4, 5] Original list: [5, 9, 10, 3, -4, 5, 178, 92, 46, -18, 0, 7] After applying Recursive Insertion Sort the said list becomes: [-18, -4, 0, 3, 5, 5, 7, 9, 10, 46, 92, 178] Original list: [1.1, 1, 0, -1, -1.1, 0.1] After applying Recursive Insertion Sort the said list becomes: [-1.1, -1, 0, 0.1, 1, 1.1]
