HackerRank:Sorting: Bubble Sort
题目
Consider the following version of Bubble Sort:
for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) {
for (int j = 0; j < n - 1; j++) {
// Swap adjacent elements if they are in decreasing order
if (a[j] > a[j + 1]) {
swap(a[j], a[j + 1]);
}
}
}
Given an array of integers, sort the array in ascending order using the Bubble Sort algorithm above. Once sorted, print the following three lines:
Array is sorted in numSwaps swaps., where is the number of swaps that took place.
First Element: firstElement, where is the first element in the sorted array.
Last Element: lastElement, where is the last element in the sorted array.
Hint: To complete this challenge, you must add a variable that keeps a running tally of all swaps that occur during execution.
For example, given a worst-case but small array to sort: we go through the following steps:
swap a
0 [6,4,1]
1 [4,6,1]
2 [4,1,6]
3 [1,4,6]
It took swaps to sort the array. Output would be
Array is sorted in 3 swaps.
First Element: 1
Last Element: 6
Function Description
Complete the function countSwaps in the editor below. It should print the three lines required, then return.
countSwaps has the following parameter(s):
a: an array of integers .
Input Format
The first line contains an integer, , the size of the array .
The second line contains space-separated integers .
Constraints
Output Format
You must print the following three lines of output:
Array is sorted in numSwaps swaps., where is the number of swaps that took place.
First Element: firstElement, where is the first element in the sorted array.
Last Element: lastElement, where is the last element in the sorted array.
Sample Input 0
3
1 2 3
Sample Output 0
Array is sorted in 0 swaps.
First Element: 1
Last Element: 3
Explanation 0
The array is already sorted, so swaps take place and we print the necessary three lines of output shown above.
Sample Input 1
3
3 2 1
Sample Output 1
Array is sorted in 3 swaps.
First Element: 1
Last Element: 3
Explanation 1
The array is not sorted, and its initial values are: . The following swaps take place:
At this point the array is sorted and we print the necessary three lines of output shown above.
题目解析
核心就是冒泡排序以及数组取第一个值和最后一个值,同时注意slice的用法
语法
class slice(stop)
class slice(start, stop[, step])
参数说明
start--起始位置 默认为None
stop--结束位置 自定义
step--间距 默认为None间距为1
