The video introduces selection sort, a simple sorting algorithm. It explains the process of selecting the smallest element in each iteration and placing it at the beginning of the list. An example with a ten-element array is provided to illustrate the steps. The video also covers the Java code implementation and discusses the algorithm's characteristics, including its time complexity, stability, and space usage. Selection sort is noted for its simplicity but is not efficient for large datasets.
