Q: Which of the following is a characteristic of Merge Sort?
Solution:
Merge Sort divides the array into halves recursively before merging them back together.
Steps: 6
Show Steps
Step 1: Start with an unsorted array that you want to sort.
Step 2: Check if the array has more than one element. If it does, continue; if not, it's already sorted.
Step 3: Divide the array into two halves. This means you split the array into two smaller arrays.
Step 4: Repeat Step 2 for each half. Keep dividing each half into smaller halves until you have arrays with one element.
Step 5: Now, start merging the smaller arrays back together. Combine them in a way that the resulting array is sorted.
Step 6: Continue merging until all the smaller arrays are combined back into one sorted array.
