Easy -1.8 This is a purely procedural question requiring mechanical execution of a standard shuttle sort algorithm with no problem-solving, insight, or conceptual understanding needed. Students simply follow the memorized steps to swap adjacent elements, making it significantly easier than average A-level questions which typically require some mathematical reasoning or application of multiple techniques.
1 Use a shuttle sort algorithm to rearrange the following numbers into ascending order, showing the new arrangement after each pass.
$$\begin{array} { l l l l l l l l }
23 & 3 & 17 & 4 & 6 & 19 & 14 & 3
\end{array}$$
