Decent. Much better than GeekforGeeks' video. Thanks

[deanwalker]

I was kind of skeptical when I found out that there were no voice overs. But it turned out fine. Thank you.

[delroymuus]

so its a night before my end of Semester exam and i stumble upon this...cannot thank you enough Yusuf #keepAtIt

[MultiVids]

I searched everywhere. Thank you for this helpful explanation. :)
Note: What helped me understand this is that this works similarly to Insertion Sort.

[mayurkulkarni]

Note that the performance of Shell sort depends very much on the gap function used. In the video he uses 2^n as the the gap function which is not a very good function since it compares odd positioned elements only in the end. Better go with Knuth's function (3n - 1) which performs way better than this one.

I cannot thank you enough for clarifying the shell sort any simpler! You are the man Yusuf! =D

[lindaw]

At first I wasn't sure due to the lack of voice over, but great explaination: best one I've found and super easy to understand. Also, thanks for the reference to Insertion sort, really helpful.

[EscuadraAlbiazul]

This is the best explanation that I have found of this, thank you for not skiping things, you are awesome!

[TheArrowster]

Thank you this was the only video on youtube where i undestand this sorting algorithm

[ARROBACOMPUTERS]

Great explanantion. No audio necessary.

[MagShell]

the best explanation ever.im learning in Chinese and when the lecturer was teaching it was all weird.good video

[MinhNguyen-wpjw]

Thank you! your teaching is very easy to understand! please keep sharing

[dikshapandey]

Very helpful... Best explanation for the shell sort I have watched till now.

[AdmMusicc]

If we are going to end up with an Insertion Sort at the last pass anyway, why are we doing this at all? To reduce number of swaps during the Insertion Sort at the end?

[andrewpersaud]

thank you. have to read the C programming language for class and shellsort came up as an example in chapter 3. i sat there for 15 minutes trying to decipher whats going on and gave up and came to youtube lol. note to others who will eventually use this book if in school for comp/elec/soft engineering: this book will hurt your head if you're a noob or even intermediate to programming

[sumaiyyakhan]

explanation cant be more easier than this. Helpful... thank you so much :)

[sandykhp]

really cool simulation. Thanks for the wonderful video

[heyad]

thanks, I watched lots of videos but i understand with this video.

[katrinejensrud]

Thank you so much for this fantastic explanation!

[mrudulag]

Its good. If audio is there, it looks much better
