Perhaps the best of these procedures operates by balancing about a pivot value, then recursing; that numerically unstable algorithm was invented by Hoare. One of these named for the apparent motion of small elements swaps neighboring elements; another one, apparently named for a clown, swaps two elements at random. Bozo, bubble, Shell, insertion, and quick- are just a few of the numerous algorithms of this type. For 10 points, name this class of algorithms that put the elements of a list in order.
