Sorting Algorithm
This is a sorting algorithm. It may be applied to a set of data in order to sort it.
For comparing various sorts, see compare sorts.

- Task
Sort an array (or list) of elements using the Selection sort algorithm.
It works as follows:
First find the smallest element in the array and exchange it with the element in the first position, then find the second smallest element and exchange it with the element in the second position, and continue in this way until the entire array is sorted.
Its asymptotic complexity is O(n2) making it inefficient on large arrays.
Its primary purpose is for when writing data is very expensive (slow) when compared to reading, eg. writing to flash memory or EEPROM.
No other sorting algorithm has less data movement.

C#
This is a generic implementation that works with any type that implements the IComparable interface
<lang csharp>class SelectionSort<T> where T : IComparable {
public T[] Sort(T[] list) { int k; T temp;
for (int i = 0; i < list.Length; i++) { k = i; for (int j=i + 1; j < list.Length; j++) { if (list[j].CompareTo(list[k]) < 0) { k = j; } } temp = list[i]; list[i] = list[k]; list[k] = temp; }
return list; }
}</lang>
Example of usage: <lang csharp>String[] str = { "this", "is", "a", "test", "of", "generic", "selection", "sort" };
SelectionSort<String> mySort = new SelectionSort<string>();
String[] result = mySort.Sort(str);

op := sortop(op,X) # select how and what we sort every i := 1 to *X-1 do { m := i every j := i + 1 to *X do if op(X[j],X[m]) then m := j # find X that belongs @i low (or high) X[m ~= i] :=: X[m] } return X
end</lang>
Note: This example relies on the supporting procedures 'sortop', and 'demosort' in Bubble Sort. The full demosort exercises the named sort of a list with op = "numeric", "string", ">>" (lexically gt, descending),">" (numerically gt, descending), a custom comparator, and also a string.

Java
This algorithm sorts in place. The call sort(array) will rearrange the array and not create a new one. <lang java>public static void sort(int[] nums){ for(int currentPlace = 0;currentPlace<nums.length-1;currentPlace++){ int smallest = Integer.MAX_VALUE; int smallestAt = currentPlace+1; for(int check = currentPlace; check<nums.length;check++){ if(nums[check]<smallest){ smallestAt = check; smallest = nums[check]; } } int temp = nums[currentPlace]; nums[currentPlace] = nums[smallestAt]; nums[smallestAt] = temp; } }</lang>
JavaScript
This algorithm sorts array of numbers. <lang javascript>function selectionSort(nums) {
var len = nums.length; for(var i = 0; i < len; i++) { var minAt = i; for(var j = i + 1; j < len; j++) { if(nums[j] < nums[minAt]) minAt = j; }
if(minAt != i) { var temp = nums[i]; nums[i] = nums[minAt]; nums[minAt] = temp; } } return nums;
}</lang>
jq
The following implementation does not impose any restrictions on the types of entities that may appear in the array to be sorted. That is, the array may include any collection of JSON entities.
The definition also illustrates the use of an inner function (swap), and the use of jq's reduction operator, reduce.<lang jq># Sort any array def selection_sort:
def swap(i;j): if i == j then . else .[i] as $tmp | .[i] = .[j] | .[j] = $tmp end; length as $length | reduce range(0; $length) as $currentPlace # state: $array ( .; . as $array | (reduce range( $currentPlace; $length) as $check # state: [ smallestAt, smallest] except initially [null] ( [$currentPlace+1] ; if length == 1 or $array[$check] < .[1] then [$check, $array[$check] ] else . end )) as $ans | swap( $currentPlace; $ans[0] ) ) ;</lang>Example:<lang jq>
[1, 3.3, null, 2, null, [1,{"a":1 }] ] | selection_sort </lang>
- Output:
[ null, null, 1, 2, 3.3, [ 1, { "a": 1 } ] ]
Julia
Because this sort is liable to be used only when memory writes come at a high cost, I've implemented it as an in-place sort. By convention, Julia functions that alter their inputs have names ending in !, so this function is called selectionsort!
.
<lang Julia>
function selectionsort!{T<:Real}(a::Array{T,1})
len = length(a) if len < 2 return nothing end for i in 1:len-1 (lmin, j) = findmin(a[i+1:end]) if lmin < a[i] a[i+j] = a[i] a[i] = lmin end end return nothing
end
a = [rand(-100:100) for i in 1:20] println("Before Sort:") println(a) selectionsort!(a) println("\nAfter Sort:") println(a) </lang>
- Output:
Before Sort: [-15,-35,51,21,-11,12,-39,21,44,70,-16,85,55,-28,-52,83,-12,-20,37,-57] After Sort: [-57,-52,-39,-35,-28,-20,-16,-15,-12,-11,12,21,21,37,44,51,55,70,83,85]

Scala
<lang scala>def swap(a: Array[Int], i1: Int, i2: Int) = { val tmp = a(i1); a(i1) = a(i2); a(i2) = tmp }
def selectionSort(a: Array[Int]) =
for (i <- 0 until a.size - 1) swap(a, i, (i + 1 until a.size).foldLeft(i)((currMin, index) => if (a(index) < a(currMin)) index else currMin))</lang>
This version avoids the extra definition by using a function literal:
<lang scala>def selectionSort(a: Array[Int]) = for (i <- 0 until a.size - 1) (
{ (i1: Int, i2: Int) => val tmp = a(i1); a(i1) = a(i2); a(i2) = tmp } ) (i, (i + 1 until a.size).foldLeft(i)((currMin, index) => if (a(index) < a(currMin)) index else currMin) )</lang>
Functional way: <lang scala>def selectionSort[T <% Ordered[T]](list: List[T]): List[T] = {
def remove(e: T, list: List[T]): List[T] = list match { case Nil => Nil case x :: xs if x == e => xs case x :: xs => x :: remove(e, xs) }
list match { case Nil => Nil case _ => val min = list.min min :: selectionSort(remove(min, list)) }

Ursala
The selection_sort function is parameterized by a relational predicate p. There are no arrays in Ursala so it uses a list, and the selected item is deleted from the list and inserted into another on each iteration rather than swapped with a preceding item of the same list. <lang Ursala>#import std
selection_sort "p" = @iNX ~&l->rx ^(gldif ==,~&r)^/~&l ^|C/"p"$- ~&</lang> This is already a bad way to code a sorting algorithm in this language, but with only a bit more work, we can get a bigger and slower version that more closely simulates the operations of repeatedly reordering an array. <lang Ursala>selection_sort "p" = ~&itB^?a\~&a ^|JahPfatPRC/~& ~=-~BrhPltPClhPrtPCTlrTQrS^D/"p"$- ~&</lang> Here is a test program sorting by the partial order relation on natural numbers. <lang Ursala>#import nat
- cast %nL
example = selection_sort(nleq) <294,263,240,473,596,392,621,348,220,815></lang>
- Output:
