Lesson overview:Insertion sort

  • In this lesson, we will explore another sorting algorithm: insertion sort. Some exam boards do not require learners to know insertion sort, so do check the specification first. We will start by discussing how to sort objects in real life, which will help us to describe something akin to an insertion sort.
