Develop a merge implementation that reduces the extraspace requirement to max(M, N/M), based on the following idea: Divide the array intoN/M blocks of size M (for simplicity in this description, assume that N is a multipleof M). Then, (i) considering the blocks as items with their first key as the sort key, sortthem using selection sort; and (ii) run through the array merging the first block withthe second, then the second block with the third, and so forth.
Write a bottom-up mergesort that makes use of the array's order by carrying out the following steps each time it needs to locate two arrays to merge: locate the first element in an array that is smaller than its predecessor, then locate the next, and finally merge them to form a sorted subarray. Consider the array size and the number of maximal ascending sequences in the array while analysing the running time of this method.
Write a version of bottom-up mergesort that takes advantage of order in the array by proceeding as follows each time it needs to find two arrays to merge: find a sorted subarray (by incrementing a pointer until finding an entry thatis smaller than its predecessor in the array), then find the next, then merge them. Analyze the running time of this algorithm in terms of the array size and the number of maximal increasing sequences in the array.
