归并排序(merge sort)

M erge 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].
2. Conquer Step
Conquer by recursively sorting the two subarrays A[p .. q] and A[q + 1 .. r].
3. Combine Step
Combine the elements back in A[p .. r] by merging the two sorted subarrays A[p .. q] and A[q + 1 .. r] into
a sorted sequence. To accomplish this step, we will define a procedure MERGE (A, p, q, r).
Note that the recursion bottoms out when the subarray has just one element, so that it is trivially sorted.

归并操作

归并操作(merge),也叫归并算法,指的是将两个顺序序列合并成一个顺序序列的方法。
如 设有数列{6,202,100,301,38,8,1}
初始状态:6,202,100,301,38,8,1
第一次归并后:{6,202},{100,301},{8,38},{1},比较次数:3;
第二次归并后:{6,100,202,301},{1,8,38},比较次数:4;
第三次归并后:{1,6,8,38,100,202,301},比较次数:4;
总的比较次数为:3+4+4=11,;
逆序数为14;
