⚡️ Speed up function sorter by 237,365%
Certainly! The given program is using a bubble sort algorithm, which has a time complexity of O(n^2). An optimized algorithm for sorting is the Timsort (used in Python's in-built sort), which has a time complexity of O(n log n). Let's rewrite the code using Python's in-built sorting function. The resulting functionality remains the same, but the performance will be significantly better for larger lists due to the optimized sorting algorithm.
