+/*
+   The selection sort algorithm rearranges a list by selecting an element in the list and moving it
+   to its proper position. This algorithm finds the location of the smallest element in the unsorted
+   portion of the list and moves it to the top of the unsorted portion of the list. The first time,
+   we locate the smallest item in the entire list. The second time, we locate the smallest item in
+   the list starting from the second element in the list, and so on.
