Question

Find the complexity of the function used to find the kth smallest integer in an unordered array of integers:


int selectkth(int a[], int k, int n) {
int i, j, mini, tmp;
   for (i = 0; i < k; i++) {
   mini = i;
      for (j = i+1; j < n; j++)
      if (a[j]<a[mini])
         mini = j;
   tmp = a[i];
   a[i] = a[mini];
   a[mini] = tmp;
   }
return a[k-1];
}
