The *measure-BubbleSort.ps1* Script
===========================
This PowerShell script measures the speed of the BubbleSort algorithm.
BubbleSort is a simple sorting algorithm that repeatedly steps through the list,
compares adjacent elements and swaps them if they are in the wrong order. The pass
through the list is repeated until the list is sorted. The algorithm, which is a
comparison sort, is named for the way smaller or larger elements "bubble" to the top of the list.
Parameters
----------
```powershell
/home/markus/Repos/PowerShell/scripts/measure-BubbleSort.ps1 [[-numIntegers] <Int32>] [<CommonParameters>]
-numIntegers <Int32>
Specifies the number of integers to sort
Required? false
Position? 1
Default value 1000
Accept pipeline input? false
Accept wildcard characters? false
[<CommonParameters>]
This script supports the common parameters: Verbose, Debug, ErrorAction, ErrorVariable, WarningAction,
WarningVariable, OutBuffer, PipelineVariable, and OutVariable.
```
Example
-------
```powershell
PS> ./measure-BubbleSort.ps1
🧭 0.729 sec to sort 1000 integers by BubbleSort
```
