+
+Merge Sort
+
+About :
+
+Merge Sort is a Divide &Conquer Alogrithm.
+
+It divides input array in two halves,calls itself for the two halves.
+the merge(arr,l,m,r) is key process that assumes that arr{i....m} and arr{m+1...r}
+are sorted and merge the two sorted is sub arrays into one.
+
+
+What do you mean by " Divide and Conquer approach"?
+
+
+A Divide-and-conquer Algorithm works by recursively breaking down a problem into two or more
+sub-problems of the same or related type, until these become simple enough to be solved directly.
+
+The solutions to the sub-problems are then combined to give a solution to the original problem.
+
+The array is split in half and the process is repeated with each half until each half is of size 1 or 0.
+
+The array of size 1 is trivially sorted.
+
+Now the two sorted arrays are combined into one big array. And this is continued until all the elements are combined and the array is sorted.
+
+Time complexity
+
+The algorithm works in O(n.logn). This is because the list is being split in log(n) calls and the merging process takes linear time in each call.
+
+Auxiliary Space: O(n)
+
+Algorithmic Paradigm: Divide and Conquer
+
+Sorting In Place: No in a typical implementation
+
+Stable: Yes
+
+
+Applications :
+
+1) Merge Sort is useful for sorting linked lists in O(nLogn) time.
+2)Inversion Count Problem
+3)Used in External Sorting
+
+
+
+Pseudocode :
+
+MergeSort(arr[], l, r)
+If r > l
+ 1. Find the middle point to divide the array into two halves:
+ middle m = (l+r)/2
+ 2. Call mergeSort for first half:
+ Call mergeSort(arr, l, m)
+ 3. Call mergeSort for second half:
+ Call mergeSort(arr, m+1, r)
+ 4. Merge the two halves sorted in step 2 and 3:
+ Call merge(arr, l, m, r)
+

+ # Stacks and Queues
+
+ we created a data structure called **Stack** and **Queue** in Python. We used three classes, _Node_ and _Queue_, and _Stack_.
+
+ ### Challenge
+- Write queue and stack classes with their methods
+
+## Approach & Efficiency
+Stack :
+- Define a method called push
+- Define a method called pop
+- Define a method called peek
+
+Queue:
+- Define a method called enqueue
+- Define a method called dequeue
+- Define a method called peek big

+Tree Traversals (Inorder, Preorder and Postorder)
+Unlike linear data structures (Array, Linked List, Queues, Stacks, etc) which have only one logical way to traverse them, trees can be traversed in different ways. Following are the generally used ways for traversing trees.
+
+
+
+Depth First Traversals:
+(a) Inorder (Left, Root, Right) : 4 2 5 1 3
+(b) Preorder (Root, Left, Right) : 1 2 4 5 3
+(c) Postorder (Left, Right, Root) : 4 5 2 3 1
+
+Breadth First or Level Order Traversal : 1 2 3 4 5
+Please see this post for Breadth First Traversal.
+
+Inorder Traversal :
+
+Algorithm Inorder(tree)
+ 1. Traverse the left subtree, i.e., call Inorder(left-subtree)
+ 2. Visit the root.
+ 3. Traverse the right subtree, i.e., call Inorder(right-subtree)
+Uses of Inorder
+In case of binary search trees (BST), Inorder traversal gives nodes in non-decreasing order. To get nodes of BST in non-increasing order, a variation of Inorder traversal where Inorder traversal s reversed can be used.
+
+
+Preorder Traversal :
+
+Algorithm Preorder(tree)
+ 1. Visit the root.
+ 2. Traverse the left subtree, i.e., call Preorder(left-subtree)
+ 3. Traverse the right subtree, i.e., call Preorder(right-subtree)
+Uses of Preorder
+Preorder traversal is used to create a copy of the tree. Preorder traversal is also used to get prefix expression on of an expression tree.
+
+Postorder Traversal :
+
+Algorithm Postorder(tree)
+ 1. Traverse the left subtree, i.e., call Postorder(left-subtree)
+ 2. Traverse the right subtree, i.e., call Postorder(right-subtree)
+ 3. Visit the root.
+Uses of Postorder
+Postorder traversal is used to delete the tree. Please see the question for deletion of tree for details. Postorder traversal is also useful to get the postfix expression of an expression tree.
+
+
+Time Complexity: O(n)
+Complexity function T(n) — for all problem where tree traversal is involved — can be defined as:
+
+T(n) = T(k) + T(n – k – 1) + c
+
+Where k is the number of nodes on one side of root and n-k-1 on the other side.
+
+Let’s do an analysis of boundary conditions
+
+Case 1: Skewed tree (One of the subtrees is empty and other subtree is non-empty )
+
+k is 0 in this case.
+T(n) = T(0) + T(n-1) + c
+T(n) = 2T(0) + T(n-2) + 2c
+T(n) = 3T(0) + T(n-3) + 3c
+T(n) = 4T(0) + T(n-4) + 4c
+
+…………………………………………
+………………………………………….
+T(n) = (n-1)T(0) + T(1) + (n-1)c
+T(n) = nT(0) + (n)c
+
+Value of T(0) will be some constant say d. (traversing a empty tree will take some constants time)
+
+T(n) = n(c+d)
+T(n) = Θ(n) (Theta of n)
+
+Case 2: Both left and right subtrees have equal number of nodes.
+
+T(n) = 2T(|_n/2_|) + c
+
+This recursive function is in the standard form (T(n) = aT(n/b) + (-)(n) )
+
+Auxiliary Space : If we don’t consider size of stack for function calls then O(1) otherwise O(n).
