Nipple Sort

A sort routine used to sort arrays from lowest to highest. It is commonly taught in high school Computer Science courses ranging from Visual Basic to Java (AP Comp Sci aka. who wrote Cocking on my book.). It is called the nipple sort because the routine resembles a nipple as it switches and sorts the numbers in the array.
Mr. M: Whats another sort routine that we learned in Computer Science I?
