Question-36

A list of n strings, each of length n is sorted in lexicographical order using the Merge Sort algorithm. What is its time complexity?

Assume that comparing strings lexicographically takes \(O(n)\).

• \(O(n\log n)\)
• \(O(n^2\log n)\)
• \(O(n^2)\)
• \(O(\log n)\)

NoteAnswer

• \(O(n\log n)\)
• \(O(n^2\log n)\)
• \(O(n^2)\)
• \(O(\log n)\)
