│ Quicksort picks a "pivot" element from the array and partitions the other elements into two groups: those less than the pivot and those greater than it. It then recursively applies the same process to each group until every subarray has one or zero elements. On average it runs in O(n log n) time and sorts in place, though its worst case is O(n²) when partitions are very unbalanced. │
