Question
I need Help on part 3. Thanks

Transcribed Image Text:Part 1: Coding Sorting Algorithms
Implement a number of sorting algorithms, and then test their performance. This assignments
consists of coding, and then testing the performance of your code using data sets of varying sizes
(from small to large).
Code these sorting algorithms in the template code provided under a4: Insertion Sort, Selection Sort,
Merge Sort, Heap Sort, Quick Sort, and Bucket Sort. For Heap Sort you can use your implementation
from assignment 3 (if it works). Check to make sure your sorting algorithms correctly sort lists of
non-negative integers in ascending order (from small to large). Your algorithms only need to work
with non-negative (>=0) integer values.
You can write as many extra helper functions as you need. Please read the requirements for each
sorting algorithm below. Since these algorithms are complicated and it is easy to make coding
mistakes, JUnit tests in the form of assert statements are provided to ensure correctness. To verify
the correctness of the sorting output, you should leave the assert statements in your submission
and not comment them out or remove them.
Part 2: Efficiency Testing
After you have coded your sorting algorithms, you should find the runtime for each sorting
algorithm. You will test each sorting algorithm on randomly generated input lists of sizes 100, 1000,
10000, and 100000. To determine the runtime of your sorting algorithm implementations, we use
the System.currentTimeMillis() method, which returns the current time in milliseconds. We call
System.currentTimeMillis() before and after a sorting algorithm runs, and subtract the two times to
get the runtime estimate for a single sorting algorithm's run on one input array.
The reported runtime may be affected by performance variability between runs, and we usually
need to average the runtime over several runs. Calling System.currentTimeMillis() before and after
the sorting will only give an accurate runtime estimate for very long input lists, since sorting a small
array will generally take little time. We average the runtimes over three runs for each sorting
algorithm and each input size. When the input array to your sorting is short (with sorting the dataset
taking a few seconds) then System.currentTimeMillis() can be expected to give a less accurate
runtime estimate.
Part 3: Runtime reporting
Upload a .docx or a .pdf file with a report including a table showing the average runtime for each
sorting algorithm and input size. For example:
Sort:

Discuss your observations from this table. Which algorithm is fastest on the small vs. large datasets?
Which algorithm do you expect to scale better with increasing input size?
At the end of your report include the entire output of your run (copy and pasted).

The strangers managed to learn enough Old English to explain that they had been enjoying their favourite pastime – belting out tunes at a karaoke party – when they saw a blinding flash and heard a thunderous roar, lost consciousness, and found themselves transported back in time without any explanation. The villagers were most interested in the strangers’ wide-ranging knowledge of popular songs from the future. They understood that the strangers belonged to some sort of bard class. The villagers were also party animals, and had a feast every night. The bards agreed to come to some of the parties and sing one Billboard Top 40 song whenever they did. When they weren’t there, the villagers would sing these songs to each other, reverently, knowing that they held clues to the future of their world.
