In Data Structures, you studied binary heaps. Binary heaps support the insert and extractMin functions in O(lgn), and getMin in O(1). Moreover, you can build a heap of n elements in just O(n). Refresh your knowledge of heaps from chapter no. 6 of your algorithms text book. Now implement Merge Sort, Heap Sort, and Quick Sort in C++ and perform the following experiment: 1. Generate an Array A of 10^7 random numbers. Make its copies B and C. Sort A using Merge Sort, B using Heap Sort, and C using Quick Sort. 2. During the sorting process, count the total number of comparisons between array ele- ments made by each algorithm. You may do this by using a global less-than-or-equal-to function to compare numbers, which increments a count variable each time it is called. 3. Repeat this process 5 times to compute the average number of comparisons made by each algorithm. 4. Present these average counts in a table. These counts give you an indication of how the dierent algorithms compare asymptotically (in big-O terms) for a large value of n.
Please answer point 3 and 4
In Data Structures, you studied binary heaps. Binary heaps support the insert and extractMin
functions in O(lgn), and getMin in O(1). Moreover, you can build a heap of n elements in
just O(n). Refresh your knowledge of heaps from chapter no. 6 of your algorithms text book.
Now implement Merge Sort, Heap Sort, and Quick Sort in C++ and perform the following
experiment:
1. Generate an Array A of 10^7 random numbers. Make its copies B and C. Sort A using
Merge Sort, B using Heap Sort, and C using Quick Sort.
2. During the sorting process, count the total number of comparisons between array ele-
ments made by each
function to compare numbers, which increments a count variable each time it is called.
3. Repeat this process 5 times to compute the average number of comparisons made by
each algorithm.
4. Present these average counts in a table. These counts give you an indication of how the
dierent algorithms compare asymptotically (in big-O terms) for a large value of n.

Now implement Merge Sort, Heap Sort, and Quick Sort in C++ and perform the following
experiment:
1. Generate an Array A of 107 random numbers. Make its copies B and C. Sort A using
Merge Sort, B using Heap Sort, and C using Quick Sort.
2. During the sorting process, count the total number of comparisons between array ele-
ments made by each algorithm. You may do this by using a global less-than-or-equal-to
function to compare numbers, which increments a count variable each time it is called.
3. Repeat this process 5 times to compute the average number of comparisons made by
each algorithm.
4. Present these average counts in a table. These counts give you an indication of how the
different algorithms compare asymptotically (in big-0 terms) for a large value of n.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2Fb1de127f-d385-4b59-819c-de415fd5a205%2F79d35b0b-c333-4b5b-8123-e113a65c5279%2Fnugt30sk_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)
