I wasn't fully prepared for this, but I did say that a bubble sort is usually a poor choice. Being an engineer (and not a programmer) by trade, I have other questions to focus on in my work, so this question seems trivial and irrelevant (i.e. aren't there other questions that can probe *my* understanding, rather than regurgitating something from Wikipedia?).
