Complexity Analysis of Bubble Sorting

In Bubble Sort, n-1 comparisons will be done in 1st pass, n-2 in 2nd pass, n-3 in 3rd pass and so on. So the total number of comparisons will be
(n-1)+(n-2)+(n-3)+.....+3+2+1
Sum = n(n-1)/2
i.e O(n2)
Hence the complexity of Bubble Sort is O(n2).
The main advantage of Bubble Sort is the simplicity of the algorithm.Space complexity for Bubble Sort is O(1), because only single additional memory space is required for temp variable
Best-case Time Complexity will be O(n), it is when the list is already sorted.
