Question
Given an array A and two indices p and r consider the following modified merge sort
write a recurrence relation describing the running time of algorithm modified merge sort(A, p,r) include base case.
mofified merge sort (A, p, r)
if p<r
n = r - p + 1
q = n/3
foo(A,p,p + q)
foo (A,p, + q + 1, p + 2q)
foo(A, P + 2q + 1, r)
merge (A, p, p + q, p + 2q)
merge(A, p,p + 2q,r)

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
- Design of algorithms - divide-and-conquer: (a) Design a divide-and-conquer algorithm DC_PROD that receives as input an array A with n>0 integers and returns the product of the elements in A. You may assume n is a power of 2. In your algorithm identify the relevant parts of a divide-and-conquer strategy: (i) divide, (ii) conquer, and (iii) combine. (b) Establish the recurrence relation for the running time, T(n), of DC_PROD.
