Question

Can you please break down line by line what the below insertion sort algorithm does/is doing on an array { 2, 11, 98, 23, 48, 33, 97, 61, 3}. Please explain in detail, I am learning. Thank you

Insertion Sort Algorithm:

Procedure InsertionSort(A)
    For i from 1 to length(A) - 1
        key = A[i]
        j = i - 1
        While j >= 0 and A[j] > key
            A[j + 1] = A[j]
            j = j - 1
        End While
        A[j + 1] = key
    End For
End Procedure
