⚡️ Speed up function sorter by 50,121%
Certainly! The given code implements a bubble sort algorithm which is not the most optimal sorting method in terms of speed. We can significantly optimize the sorting by using Python's built-in Timsort algorithm provided by the `sorted()` function or the `sort()` method of the list. Here's the optimized version of the program. This version leverages the `sort()` method of the list which implements Timsort, a hybrid sorting algorithm derived from merge sort and insertion sort, providing a much better performance.
