The main advantages of the bubble sort algorithm are:
- It is easy to understand and implement[1][4][5].
- It is an in-place sorting algorithm, so it requires minimal extra memory[1][4][5].
- It performs well when the array is almost sorted[2].
The main disadvantages of bubble sort are:
- It has a time complexity of O(n^2) in the average and worst cases, making it inefficient for large datasets[1][3][4][5].
- It requires more element assignments compared to other sorting algorithms like insertion sort[2].
- It is not suitable for large data sets, as its performance decreases quadratically as the number of elements increases[1][4].
