The Selection Sort Algorithm  mainly works as compares two successive elements of an array repeatedly and swapping if necessary.

Working of Selection Sort

It is based of minimum and maximum value. First check maximum or largest value in array list and place it into first position like (Set FIRST) of array, next find the minimum or smallest element in array list Like (Set SECOND) and then Swap SECOND with FIRST.

Algorithm

function select(list[1..n], k)
   for i from 1 to k
      minIndex = i
      minValue = list[i]
      for j from i+1 to n
         if list[j] < minValue
            minIndex = j
            minValue = list[j]
      swap list[i] and list[minIndex]
return list[k]

Program

//Display Sort
function display($array){
   $size = count($array);
   $message = "";
   for($i=0;$i<$size;$i++){
      $message .= $array[$i];
      $message .= ($size==$i+1)? ".": ",";
   }
   return $message;
}
//Selection Sort
function selection_sort($array){
   $size = count($array);
   for($i=0;$i<$size;$i++){
      for($j=$i+1;$j<$size;$j++){
         if($array[$i]>$array[$j]){
            $temp = $array[$i];
            $temp_b = $array[$j];
            $array[$i] = $temp_b;
         }
      }
   }
   return $array;
}
$array = [34,304, 302,745,91,5,764,200];
echo "<p>".display($array)."</p>";
$sort_array = selection_sort($array);
echo "<p>".display($sort_array)."</p>";
