Solve {r}{5}{4}{3}{2}{1}{-1}{-2}{-3}{-4}{-5}

$$\left. \begin{array} { r } { 5 } \\ { 4 } \\ { 3 } \\ { 2 } \\ { 1 } \\ { - 1 } \\ { - 2 } \\ { - 3 } \\ { - 4 } \\ { - 5 } \end{array} \right.$$

Sort

$$-5,-4,-3,-2,-1,1,2,3,4,5$$

Solution Steps

To sort the list, start from a single element 5.

$$5$$

Insert 4 to the appropriate location in the new list.

$$4,5$$

Insert 3 to the appropriate location in the new list.

$$3,4,5$$

Insert 2 to the appropriate location in the new list.

$$2,3,4,5$$

Insert 1 to the appropriate location in the new list.

$$1,2,3,4,5$$

Insert -1 to the appropriate location in the new list.

$$-1,1,2,3,4,5$$

Insert -2 to the appropriate location in the new list.

$$-2,-1,1,2,3,4,5$$

Insert -3 to the appropriate location in the new list.

$$-3,-2,-1,1,2,3,4,5$$

Insert -4 to the appropriate location in the new list.

$$-4,-3,-2,-1,1,2,3,4,5$$

Insert -5 to the appropriate location in the new list.

$$-5,-4,-3,-2,-1,1,2,3,4,5$$

Evaluate

$$5,\ 4,\ 3,\ 2,\ 1,\ -1,\ -2,\ -3,\ -4,\ -5$$
