Transcribed Image Text:HW #5: Merging Sorted Lists
DUE Wednesday 3/2 at 12:44pm
As input, enter two non-negative number sequences in increasing order (the numbers entered are always getting bigger, and no
number repeats), both terminated by a -1. The size of each sequence can vary (maybe sequence-1 has four numbers, and
sequence-2 has seven).
You code needs to then output a third sequence that is a combination of sequence 1 and sequence 2, and is sorted in non-
decreasing order.
How is non-decreasing order different from increasing order?
This means there can be a repeated number in the third sequence (see Example runs 1&2 for examples of output with a
repeated number). A strictly increasing order sequence cannot have repeat numbers at all (Example runs 3 & 4 have output that
is in increasing order). Remember, all input sequences must be in strictly increasing order!
HINT: use three separate lists to solve this!

Transcribed Image Text:EXAMPLE RUN #1:
Input :
sequence-1 input: 2 7.3 20.3 99 102.7 -1
sequence-2 input: 10 20.3 77
-1
Output:
2 7.3 10 20.3 20.3 77 99 102.7
EXAMPLE RUN #2
Input :
sequence-1 input: 4 100 -1
sequence-2 input: 1 78 90.6 100 202 -1
Output:
1 4 78 90.6 100 100 202
