A collection of algorithms for TypeScript.

/**
 * Sorts an array using the selection sort algorithm.
 *
 * Iterates through the array, repeatedly finding the minimum element
 * from the unsorted portion and swapping it with the first unsorted element.
 *
 * @typeParam T - The type of elements in the array.
 * @param array - The array to be sorted. The sorting is done in-place.
 * @param compareFn - A comparison function that returns a negative number if the first argument is less than the second, zero if they're equal, and a positive number otherwise.
 * @returns The sorted array.
 * @see {@link https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Selection_sort} for more information on selection sort.
