Merge Sort

 Merge Sort





  • We need to break the array into two halves.
  • Once u break the array into two halves, u need to break those two separate halves into 2 more halves, a total of 4. 
  • Like this, we need to break the array, where the individual array will have only one element using recursion.
  • Once the array is broken into tiny pieces, we will join them again by merging them together.
  • To achieve this, first we need to write a program to merge two sorted arrays.

Selection Sort

  Selection Sort Finding(selecting) the smallest element in the loop and swapping it to the starting of the unsorted array. This is best used for finding the smallest element in the array. Let's take an array We will write the outer loop Let's assume the first index of outer loop as smallest(lowest) number Now write the inner loop, and start the inner loop as i+1. Because we need to compare two adjacent elements, hence inner loop starts with i+1 Now after the inner loop, compare the lowest element with current inner loop element. If the inner loop element is lower than lowest element, then reassign lowest number index to j value. After completing the inner loop, check the lowest index value is changed or not If it changed, swap the lowest element index with outer loop index. function selectionSort (arr) {     for (let i = 0; i < arr.length; i++) {         var lowest = i;         for (let j = i + 1; j < arr.length; j++) { ...

Numbers programs

 1. Write a program to find the sum of natural numbers? function addUpToNumber(n) {     var total = 0;     for(let i = 1; i <= n; i++) {         total = total + i;     }     return total; }     addUpToNumber(4); 2. Write a program to find the sum of natural numbers without loop? function addUpToNumber(n) {     return n * (n+1)/2 } addUpToNumber(4); 3. Write a program to find the sum of even numbers? function sumOfFirstEvenNumbers(n) {     return n * (n+1) }     sumOfFirstEvenNumbers (4);  4. Write a program to find the sum of even numbers in a range?   function sumOfEvenNumbersBetweenRange(i, n) {     var result = 0;     for (let index = i; index <= n; index++) {         if(index % 2 == 0) {             result = result + index;             console.log(result);   ...
