You have two sequences of mutually-comparable items to sort: The sequences are identical in terms of their sizes, their items, and the current (unsorted) order of those items. One sequence is in an array and the other is in a linked list. For the array and the link list, make an argument for why the quick sort would be best for one and the merge sort for the other. In the identified situation, give a quantitative answer based on big-O and other technical factors, not just a qualitative answer.

Q4.1:

You have two sequences of mutually-comparable items to sort:

  • The sequences are identical in terms of their sizes, their items, and the current (unsorted) order of those items.
  • One sequence is in an array and the other is in a linked list.
  • For the array and the link list, make an argument for why the quick sort would be best for one and the merge sort for the other.
  • In the identified situation, give a quantitative answer based on big-O and other technical factors, not just a qualitative answer.
  • Address the specifics of the two algorithms -- their operations, time efficiency, money use, etc. Assume no optimization
