Answer #1

Answer:

Shell Sort is a comparison based sorting.
Time complexity of Shell Sort depends on gap sequence . Its best case time complexity is O(n* logn) and worst case is O(n* log2n). Time complexity of Shell sort is generally assumed to be near to O(n) and less than O(n2) as determining its time complexity is still an open problem.
The best case in shell sort is when the array is already sorted. The number of comparisons is less.
It is an in-place sorting algorithm as it requires no additional scratch space.
Shell Sort is unstable sort as relative order of elements with equal values may change.
It is been observed that shell sort is 5 times faster than bubble sort and twice faster than insertion sort its closest competitor.
There are various increment sequences or gap sequences in shell sort which produce various complexity between O(n) and O(n2).
