 * @brief This is an implementation of a recursive version of the [Bubble sort algorithm](https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/recursive-bubble-sort/)
 *
 * @details
 * The working principle of the Bubble sort algorithm.

 * Bubble sort is a simple sorting algorithm used to rearrange a set of ascending or descending order elements.
 * Bubble sort gets its name from the fact that data "bubbles" to the top of the dataset.
 
 * ### Algorithm

 * What is Swap?

 * Swapping two numbers means that we interchange their values.
 * Often, an additional variable is required for this operation. 
 * This is further illustrated in the following:

 * void swap(int x, int y){
 *     int z = x;
 *     x = y;
 *     y = z;
 * }

 * The above process is a typical displacement process.
 * When we assign a value to x, the old value of x is lost.
 * That's why we create a temporary variable z to store the initial value of x.
 * z is further used to assign the initial value of x to y, to complete swapping.

 * Recursion

 * While the recursive method does not necessarily have advantages over iterative
 * versions, but it is useful to enhance the understanding of the algorithm and
 * recursion itself. In Recursive Bubble sort algorithm, we firstly call the
 * function on the entire array, and for every subsequent function call, we exclude
 * the last element. This fixes the last element for that sub-array.Formally, for
 * `ith` iteration, we consider elements up to n-i, where n is the number of
 * elements in the array. Exit condition: n==1; i.e. the sub-array contains only
 * one element.

 * Complexity
 * Time complexity: O(n) best case; O(n²) average case; O(n²) worst case
 * Space complexity: O(n)

 * We need to traverse the array `n * (n-1)` times. However, if the entire array is
 * already sorted, then we need to traverse it only once. Hence, O(n) is the best case
 * complexity
