Answer / Manmeet Singh
Quicksort is generally faster than Merge Sort for most practical purposes because its average time complexity (O(n log n)) is closer to the best-case scenario (O(n log n)). Quicksort's main advantage lies in its in-place nature and divide-and-conquer approach, which allows it to handle large datasets more efficiently.
