Question
![6 - Merge sorted arrays
Program a method merge_sorted(a,b) that when given two sorted arrays a and b, returns a new sorted array c that has the elements from array a and
array b. For example when given
= [1,3,5,6,10]
a
b = [1,4,6,8]
%3D
the resulting array should be:
C =
= [1,1,3,4,5,6,6,8,10]
This method should not call a sorting method. Instead, the resulting array should be produced by "zipping" the two input arrays together: we repeatedly
select the least element that we did not consider before from a and b and include this in c.
For example:
a =
[1,3,5,6,10]
b = [1,4,6,8]
C =
[1,1,3,
...]
the arrows (^) point to the lowest element we did not consider before. Of these, element 4 from b is less than element 5 from a. For this reason, we select
4 as the next element and advance the arrow ^ for b to point to 6.](https://content.bartleby.com/qna-images/question/81fc0ffa-b774-46cc-b117-70ac50a400ab/2d249b97-343f-4d5c-a1cf-9fbaeaccc32d/4g573cd_thumbnail.png)

- 25. Minimum Difference Sum Given an array of n integers, rearrange them so that the sum of the absolute differences of all adjacent elements is minimized. Then, compute the sum of those absolute differences. Example n = 5 arr = [1, 3, 3, 2, 4] If the list is rearranged as arr' = [1, 2, 3, 3, 4], the absolute differences are /1-2/ = 1, 12-3|= 1, 13- 3|=0, 13-4/= 1. The sum of those differences is 1+1+0+1 = 3.
