cant we choose the pivot randomly instead o shufling the array?
Randomised quick sort
@Shreya-Gupta-2383169445069382 , we can’t change the way we are choosing the pivot element in between the algo . yes , we can define different ways of choosing pivot like last element , first element, middle element etc. for every definition there is a worst case scenario that’s why we are shuffling the array such that worst case scenario has equal probability as other scenario
In case of any doubt feel free to ask
mark your doubt as resolved if you got the answer
but in the algo we can create a random index and assign it to the pivot?
Yeah !! this way you can do it .
