ALGORITHM TODAY: MERGE SORT ALGORITHM

Merge sort is based on the divide-and-conquer paradigm. Its worst-case running time has a lower order of growth than insertion sort. Since we are dealing with subproblems, we state each subproblem as sorting a subarray A[p .. r]. Initially, p = 1 and r = n, but these values change as we recurse through subproblems.
To sort A[p .. r]:
1. Divide Step
If a given array A has zero or one element, simply return; it is already sorted. Otherwise, split A[p .. r] into two subarrays A[p .. q] and A[q + 1 .. r], each containing about half of the elements of A[p .. r]. That is, q is the halfway point of A[p .. r].
