How is it possible to modify any sorting algorithm based on comparisons so that it has a “good” best-case running time (ie, Θ(n))? Justify!

The implementation of a queue in an array, as given in this chapter, uses the variable count to determine whether the queue is empty or full. You can also use the variable count to return the number of elements in the queue. On the other hand, class linkedQueueType does not use such a variable to keep track of the number of elements in the queue. Redefine the class linkedQueueType by adding the variable count to keep track of the number of elements in the queue. Modify the definitions of the functions addQueue and deleteQueue as necessary. Add the function queueCount to return the number of elements in the queue. Also, write a program to test various operations of the class you defined.
