Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

In Merge Sort, what is the primary operation performed to combine two sorted arrays?
  • Step 1: Start with two sorted arrays that you want to combine.
  • Step 2: Create an empty array to hold the merged result.
  • Step 3: Compare the first elements of both arrays.
  • Step 4: Take the smaller element and add it to the new array.
  • Step 5: Move to the next element in the array from which you took the smaller element.
  • Step 6: Repeat steps 3 to 5 until you have gone through all elements in both arrays.
  • Step 7: If one array is finished, add the remaining elements from the other array to the new array.
  • Step 8: The new array now contains all elements from both arrays in sorted order.
