Application of stable sort

[manjusha27]

Hi,

Could somebody suggest an application for the stable sorting technique? Any scenario where you've chosen a particular sorting algorithm because it is stable?

Thanks.

you can find that in wikipedia's Sorting Algorithm article.:

The sorting algorithm you chose, strongly deppends on what you need, and of what kind of data you're sorting. If you dont have much experiencie coding sorting algorithms, Bubble Sort will be perfect, since it's stable and easy to understand.
