Explanation of Solution

Running time of algorithm:

It is given that Al and bob claims and argues about their algorithms. Al means that the O(nlogn) is faster than the bob’s algorithm time complexity O(n2).

To prove the results, a set of operation is performed to check the result. If the input value of size “n” is less than 100 then the bob’s algorithm O(n2) runs faster whereas the value n greater than or equal to 100 the Al ‘s algorithm O(nlogn) runs faster.

Possibility of O(nlogn) faster thanO(n2):

Yes”, O(nlogn) faster than O(n2), because the linear algo
