OCR GCSE Computer Science Paper 2 in 30 mins

Giving you a last minute overview of as much content I can cram into a 30 minute video on OCR GCSE Computer Science Paper 2, which is the exam that tests you on your programming and problem solving (along with a few other more theoretical areas).
If you happen to be watching this and have a lot more than half an hour, I'd suggest you have a look at my Paper 2 specific playlist which covers the full content you need: • (Paper 2, J277) OCR GC...

This exam was literally the easiest exam I've done so far. I wouldn't be surprised if I got a 9 in computing now thanks to that. By coincidence (and a really convenient one at that), we had a computing lesson before the exam and our teacher showed this video and I found that funny because I had already watched this video before school.

8:15 ) would 5 not move to the end if it is in descending order because it is first to be scanned in the insertion sort therefore it should be moved to far right?

[@kirbystar0796]

It gets kept in the "sorted part" of the list, then when 17 joins the "sorted part" it gets moved in front of it, but it has to stay in the "sorted part" until all the numbers have been scanned and are in order
