Question

def sorting(x, i, j)

if j+1-i < 10 then

 Mergesort(x, i, j);

t1 = i + (j+1-i)/3

t2 = i + 2*(j+1-i)/3

Sorting(x, i, t2)

Sorting(x, i, j)

Sorting(x, i, t2)

// x is an array, I and j are first and last indices of this part of the array

// on k elements, takes O(k log k) time

 

worst case analysis?
