**Efficient Sorting Algorithm for Distinct Elements in Array**Given an array \( D[1, \ldots, n] \) whose elements are distinct (\( D[i] \neq D[j] \), for every \( i \neq j \in \{1, \ldots, n\} \)) and are taken from the set \( 1, 2, \ldots, 2n \):**Problem Statement:**Design an efficient sorting algorithm for the array \( D \).**Constraints:**1. All elements in \( D \) are distinct.2. Elements \( D[i] \) are members of the finite set \( \{1, 2, \ldots, 2n\} \).Let's explore possible solutions for sorting such an array under the given conditions. ### Sorting Algorithm AnalysisConsider the problem of sorting an array \( A[1, \ldots, n] \) of integers. We presented an \( O(n \log n) \)-time algorithm in class and also proved a lower bound of \( \Omega(n \log n) \) for any comparison-based algorithm.### Key Concepts- **Sorting Algorithms:** - **Definition:** Procedures used to arrange elements in a specific order. - **Examples:** Quick Sort, Merge Sort, Heapsort, etc.- **Complexity Analysis:** - **Big O Notation \(O(\cdot)\):** Represents the upper bound of the time complexity, providing an estimate of the maximum time required by an algorithm. - **Big Omega Notation \( \Omega(\cdot) \):** Represents the lower bound of the time complexity, providing an estimate of the minimum time required by an algorithm.### Sorting Complexity- For any comparison-based sorting algorithm, the time complexity in the worst case is \( O(n \log n) \).- It has been proven using decision trees that the lower bound for these algorithms is \( \Omega(n \log n) \), meaning no comparison-based algorithm can perform better than this in the general case.### Understanding Terms:- **Comparison-based Algorithm:** An algorithm that only uses comparisons between elements to determine their order.This theoretical foundation is essential in computational theory and helps guide the development of efficient algorithms in computer science.

You need to explain 1) what makes a worst case, what makes a best case, 2) the time complexity for both the worst case and the best case, 3) how to avoid the worst case in practice.
Let M(n) be the minimum number of comparisons needed to sort an array A with exactly n ele- ments. For example, M(1) = 0, M(2) = 1, and M(4) = 4. If n is an even number, clearly explain why M(n) = 2M(n/2) + n/2.
