'''Shell sort''' (or '''Shellsort''') is one of the oldest [[sorting algorithm|sorting algorithms]]. It was invented in 1959 by [[D. L. Shell|Donald L. Shell]] <nowiki>[</nowiki>[[#References|Sh]]<nowiki>]</nowiki>.
It is fast, easy to understand and easy to implement. 
However, its complexity analysis is a little more sophisticated.
