Question

it's not a programming question.

[画像:Problem Suppose we have an array A[1: n] of n distinct numbers. For any element A[i], we define the rank of A[i], denoted by rank(A[i]), as the number of elements in A that are strictly smaller than A[i] plus one; so rank(A[i]) is also the correct position of A[i] in the sorted order of A. Suppose we have an algorithm magic-pivot that given any array B[1 : m] (for any m > 0), returns an index i such that rank(B[i]) = m/4 and has worst-case runtime of O(n)'. Example: if B = [1,7,6, 3, 13, 4, 5, 11], then magic-pivot(B) will return index 4 as rank of B[4] = 3 is 2 which is m/4 in this case (rank of B[4] 3 is 2 since there is only one element smaller than 3 in B). (a) Use magic-pivot as a black-box to obtain a deterministic quick-sort algorithm with worst-case running time of O(n log n). ]
