For manual testing run:
python3 gnome_sort.py
Gnome Sort Algorithm implementation in Python.

Gnome sort (also called Stupid Sort) works by comparing the current element
with the previous one. If they are in the wrong order, it swaps them and
moves one step back. Otherwise it moves one step forward.

Time Complexity: O(n^2) in the worst case
Space Complexity: O(1)
