Selection Sortarrow_forwardWhy is it necessary to read two sorted lists simultaneously when combining them using a binary search and ranking algorithm?arrow_forward1.) Suppose that you sort a large array of integers by using a merge sort. Next you use a binary search to determine whether a given integer occurs in the array. Finally, you display all of the integers in the sorted array. a.) Which algorithm is faster, in general: the merge sort or the binary search? Explain in terms of Big O notation. b.) Which algorithm is faster, in general: the binary search or displaying the integers? Explain in terms of Big O notationarrow_forward

What is the list obtained after the first pass? What is the list obtained after the third pass? What is the list obtained after the final pass?arrow_forwardcite one real-world example where we use bubble sort and selection sort.arrow_forward

Given the following list: 9 4 2 6 7 5 3 8 Identify the state of the list while being sorted using the selection sort algorithm.arrow_forwardWhich of the following algorithms is better to sort a mostly sorted data sequence? A data sequence is mostly sorted if only a handful of integers don't appear in the longest sorted subsequence. For example, the following data sequence is almost sorted since there is only one integer (0) out of place in a sorted sequence of numbers: 1, 2, 3, 4, 0, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 Question 28 options: merge sort selection sort insertion sort quick sortarrow_forward
