Assignment: Analysis of Algorithms
1. Implement the pseudo algorithms of Insertion Sort and Merge Sort in Java or C++. Your implement should follow the pseudocode provided in the textbook/lecture and use your variables in the implementation. Each must be a separate method. DO NOT COPY SOMEBODY ELSE'S CODE!
2. To test and measure a actual running time of each sorting on your machine:
a. Randomly generate 100 integers between 0 and 500.
b. Store those integers in an array and display them on screen.
c. Using each sorting method, sort numbers and show the numbers sorted. The array must be passed as an argument to call a method.
d. For each sorting, measure a actual running time (millisecond) taken in sorting numbers on your machine and save the time in a temporary variable(s) or an array. The actual running time would be the elapsed time from start to end of sorting.
e. Repeat a - d five times at least.
f. Display five running times measured for both sorting methods.
g. Calculate an average of the five running times for both and display them.
h. All data display must appear in a tabular format.
3. Upload your zip file of the project folder via ‘Assignment 1 of Submit Assignments' menu on Blackboard.
Add appropriate headings with your name, a date submitted, and a brief description at the beginning or comments in the body.
