Quicksort Part 1 - Algorithm

This video describes the algorithm for quicksort, a popular sorting technique used widely in practice. It employs a recursive "divide and conquer" strategy. Using several examples, the video develops the ideas that drive the algorithm, and shows how quicksort works on a variety of inputs, from the most extreme to the most general. The running time of quicksort is built from counts of item-to-item comparisons for specific examples, leading to the big O generalization. The running time is then compared with that of insertion sort, telling us which sorting algorithm to use when.

The subsequent numbers are correct--16*4 = 64, for total number of comparisons. Sorry for the error.)
