Answer #1

D) None of these options is correct

As for the comparison just look at the following table which shows the whole scenario of sorting algorithm time complexity of worst-case time complexity column for each sorting algorithm.

Algorithm Data structure Time complexity:Best Time complexity:Average Time complexity:Worst Space complexity:Worst
Quick sort Array O(n log(n)) O(n log(n)) O(n2) O(n)
Merge sort Array O(n log(n)) O(n log(n)) O(n log(n)) O(n)
Insertion sort Array O(n) O(n2) O(n2) O(1)
Count Sort Array Ω(N + k) Θ(N + k) O(N + k) O(k=n)

Thanks

Implement functions for insertion sort, quicksort, heapsort and merge sort that input an array of integers and sort it in-place. Write a program that generates random integer arrays (hint: use seed appropriately to avoid generating same sequences) of lengths 10, 100, 1000, 10,000, 100,000, 1000,000, and then sorts each using each of the sorting functions from (a), and measures the time in nanoseconds. The program will repeat this process 30 times and will compute the average execution time for each...

Determine wether the statements are true or false 1. Suppose we have f(n) = nlgn , g(n) = 5n , then f(n) = O(g(n)). 2. Suppose we have f(n) = nn/4 , g(n) = n1/2lg4n , then f(n) = O(g(n)). 3. No comparison-based sorting algorithm can do better than Ω(n log n) in the worst-case 4. Quicksort running time does not depend on random shuffling.

The special case of the gamma distribution in which α is a positive integer n is called an Erlang distribution. If we replace β by 1 λ in the expression below, f(x; α, β) = 1 βαΓ(α) xα − 1e−x/β x ≥ 0 0 otherwise the Erlang pdf is as follows. f(x; λ, n) = λ(λx)n − 1e−λx (n − 1)! x ≥ 0 0 x < 0 It can be shown that if the times between successive events are...
