Bubble Sort : Swift

Bubble sort is a simple and straightforward sorting algorithm commonly used in computer science. In Swift language, Bubble sort works by repeatedly swapping adjacent elements if they are in the wrong order until the entire list is sorted. It has a time complexity of O(n^2), making it inefficient for large data sets. The algorithm iterates through the list multiple times, comparing and swapping elements. However, it is easy to understand and implement, making it suitable for small or nearly sorted arrays where simplicity is prioritized over efficiency. For larger data sets, more efficient sorting algorithms like QuickSort or MergeSort are preferred.
