Given the following algorithm, matching each statement to the correct sequence for complexity analysis.

procedure Insertion_Sort(A): A is a list of n integers

1 for i = 1 to n-1 do

2 x = a_i

3 j = i − 1

4 while (j $\geq$ \geq 0) do

5 if $x \geq a_j$ x \geq a_j then

6 break

7 end if

8 $a_{j+1} = a_j$ a_{j+1} = a_j

9 j = j − 1

a end while

b $a_{j+1} = x$ a_{j+1} = x

c end for

d return A

We consider comparison as the operation to be analyzed

The pseudocode contains a nested loop.

In each iteration in the inner loop, there are 2 operations.

The inner loop is a while loop for variable j and the number of iterations is i-1 in the worst case.

There are at most $2\times (1+2+\cdots+(n-1)) + 2(n-1)+1$ 2\times (1+2+\cdots+(n-1)) + 2(n-1)+1 operation.

The complexity of this algorithm is O( n^2 )

The outer loop is a for loop for variable i and the number of iterations is n-1.
