In Quick Sort, what is the role of the pivot?
  • Step 1: Choose a pivot element from the array. This can be any element, but it's often the first, last, or middle element.
  • Step 2: Compare each element in the array to the pivot.
  • Step 3: Divide the array into two parts: one part with elements less than the pivot and another part with elements greater than the pivot.
  • Step 4: The pivot is now in its correct position, separating the two parts.
