Demonstrates the quicksort algorithm on an unsorted array using in-place pivot partitioning. Shows the two-pointer sweep with elements being classified relative to the pivot, the pivot landing in its final sorted position, and recursive application to subarrays. Displays both average and worst-case complexities.

Quicksort — Pivot Partitioning

Description

Demonstrates the quicksort algorithm on an unsorted array using in-place pivot partitioning. Shows the two-pointer sweep with elements being classified relative to the pivot, the pivot landing in its final sorted position, and recursive application to subarrays. Displays both average and worst-case complexities.

Phases

# Phase Name Duration Description
1 Intro 3s Title and unsorted array displayed
2 Pivot Selection 4s Last element chosen as pivot, highlighted in gold
3 Partition Pass 1 12s Two-pointer sweep: left finds element > pivot, right finds element < pivot; elements swap
4 Pivot Placement 4s Pivot moves to its final sorted position
5 Recursion 16s Visualize recursive calls on left and right subarrays
6 Complexity 5s Average O(n log n) and worst O(n²) displayed
7 Outro 4s Fully sorted array highlighted

Notes

  • Pivot highlighted in gold throughout
  • Elements smaller than pivot colored cyan (left partition), larger colored orange (right partition)
  • Once sorted position determined, pivot shown in bright green
  • Show left pointer (i) and right pointer (j) with labeled arrows
