How can you optimize selection sort to improve its performance?
- Implementing binary search to find the minimum element
- Randomizing the selection of elements
- Using multithreading to parallelize the selection process
- Utilizing a different comparison algorithm
One optimization for selection sort is to use a different strategy for selecting elements, such as randomizing the selection. This reduces the likelihood of encountering worst-case scenarios and improves overall performance.
