- Trace the exchange sort, selection sort, bubble sort, insertion sort andmerge sort as they sort the following array into ascending order: 12 23 5 10 34 7 Provide an explanation as you go through the steps of sorting to show that you understand these algorithms.arrow_forwardI need help with this merge sort questionarrow_forwardUsing Java, 1. Implement external sort: for sort phase use normal sort, for merge phase use two way merge to merge n sorted files (merge2way(n)), for array sort use heapsort. Also write merge(f1, f2, f3) to merge two sorted files f1 and f2 into f3.. Write mergenway(n) method and print execution time of both merges for initial input file over 10MB data. A sample input is as follow:Note:Fist input is max array size for sort 10 84 82 52 80 96 85 75 75 82 87 92 89 57 94 93 92 63 99 87 72 73 56 74 50 84 62 72 55 86 75 74 100 83 60 53 68 89 67 66 65 72 94 73 54 98 96 85 75 75 82 87 92 89arrow_forward
- List the resulting array after each call of the merge method. Indicate the number of character-to-character comparisons made for each call to merge (line 20 of the merge method at the end of the assignment). Sort the following array of characters into alphabetical order: C Q S A X B T.arrow_forwardSorting Algorithm 1.) Trace the quick sort’s partitioning algorithm as it partitions the following array: 38 16 40 39 12 27arrow_forward4- Sort the list A[]={ 20, 13,4, 34, 5, 15, 90, 100, 75, 102, 112, 1} a) Using Merge Sort and show the order that the Merge procedure is performed. b) Explain the average case of Merge Sort. Give a detail explanation of how we can estimate the mean in relationship with the worst and best-case scenarios (hint: use the answer for question 3 as a lower-bound for the average).arrow_forward
