Internal sort
Updated: 09/19/2024 by Computer Hope
An internal sort is a sort performed in the computer's main memory, making sorting much faster. However, internal sorting isn't always possible because all sorted data must fit into memory, and when dealing with a lot of data, there may not be enough memory.
Tip
When dealing with a lot of data, a system with little memory, or many users, an external sort is a better solution.
