Mechanical Turk Algorithms for Push Swap

The **Mechanical Turk algorithm** is a heuristic-based sorting strategy that draws inspiration from human-like decision-making and local iterative operations. While not typically categorized as a traditional sorting algorithm, this approach combines basic stack operations (such as push, pop, swap, and rotate) to progressively improve the order of elements. Rather than relying on global sorting insights, Mechanical Turk algorithms focus on making local adjustments and using trial-and-error to move the stack closer to a sorted state.\
