+/// Selection sort works as follows:
+/// - Find the smallest element in the array, and exchange it with the first
+/// element in the array.
+/// - Find the second smallest element in the array, and exchange it with the
+/// element in the second position.
+/// - Continue in this way until the entire array is sorted.
+///
+/// It takes about as long to run selection sort for a file that is already
+/// in order, or for a file with all keys equal, as it does for a randomly
+/// ordered file.
+///
+/// It is the method of choice for sorting files with huge items and small keys.
+/// For such applications, the cost of moving the data dominates the cost of
+/// making comparisons, and no algorithms can sort a file with substantially less
+/// data movement than selection sort.
