Selection Sort

• General Idea

Lecture Task

• Let's make a driver program that creates an array of 10 Integers, calls selection sort, and then prints out the sorted array.
• Let's make a Sort class that uses this prototype: public static void selection (Comparable [] objects)
• Then let's change its prototype so that it compiles without any warnings:
  public static <T extends Comparable<T>> void selection (T [] objects)
