Integer sorting is a specific category of sorting algorithms that is used to arrange a sequence of integers in a particular order, typically either ascending or descending. Unlike comparison-based sorting algorithms, which use comparisons between elements to determine their order, integer sorting methods leverage the properties of the integers themselves, allowing for potentially faster sorting under certain conditions. Some common integer sorting algorithms include: 1. **Counting Sort**: This algorithm works by counting the occurrences of each integer within a specified range (e.g.
