Question

Transcribed Image Text:Programming Assignment III
In this assignment you are required to be researching some sorting algorithms available and
providing some basic description on each algorithm you find. Your grade will be relative based on
the number of algorithms you can come up with and their respective specifications. I would be
happy with 10 sorting algorithms with clear description and analysis. The following is the
specification you need to provide on each algorithm:
1. The name of the algorithm
2. A small paragraph describing the operation of the algorithm
3. The code of the sorting function in the language you prefer (Java, C++, C, Python, C#,).
4. A testing code to run the sorting function using random arrays of sizes: 1000, 10000, 100000,
and 1000000 elements. The code should calculate the execution runtime in nanoseconds for each
array size sorted.
5. The theoretical O-Notation runtime of the algorithm
After providing the above description on the algorithms you find, you are requested to summarize
your findings in a table as follows:
Algorithm Name
Average Execution Runtime (based Theoretical O-Notation runtime
on your results in point 4 above)
533 nanoseconds
Merge Sort
Insertion Sort
O (nlogn)
O(n²)
753 nanoseconds
...
...
At the end, kindly give your analysis on one or more algorithms that you find the most efficient.

Note: Operating systems may use different rules for assigning memory addresses. For this worksheet let us assume that the compiler will use up the greater memory address first (e.g., if 0x7ffd151a1d58 and 0x7ffd151a1d5c are available, it will initialize variables in 0x7ffd151a1d5c first).arrow_forward
