Slowsort is a highly inefficient sorting algorithm, primarily used for educational purposes to illustrate how sorting can be done in a very suboptimal way. It is a humorous example that intentionally uses an excessive amount of time to sort an array. The basic idea behind Slowsort is as follows: 1. If the array size is less than or equal to one, it is already sorted.
