Merge sort, Data Structure & Algorithms

Assignment Help:

Merge sort is a sorting algorithm which uses the basic idea of divide and conquers. This algorithm initially divides the array into two halves, sorts them separately and then merges them together again. This method is recursive, with the base criterion-the number of elements in the array is not more than 1. Let us suppose variable low and high represents the index of the first and last element of the array respectively, the merge sort can be defined recursively as follows

If(low

Divide the list into two halves Mergesort the left half Mergesort the right half

Mergesort the two sorted halves into one sorted list

Endif.
