You should take your armchair to be reupholstered or something, because sorting things is like the primary type of algorithm. Even if it’s as straightforward as “sort by date”, since objects in the database are not stored by date, they have to be sorted to get them displayed by date.
I wouldn’t say primary type, they just happen to be the primary example that theory (complexity analysis etc) is taught with. Hence also the veritable zoo of very very bad sorting algorithms that still have proper names. There’s no quantum bogosort for string search.

Huh, I stand corrected!
Wow you got out of that armchair quickly!
Yeah I try not to be an ass about being wrong
It was a joke.
Armchair analysis to standing corrected
