MTH 221 Competitive Success/snaptutorial.com MTH 221 Week 2 DQ 1 For more classes visit www.snaptutorial.com Describe a situation in your professional or personal life when recursion, or at least the principle of recursion, played a role in accomplishing a task, such as a large chore that could be decomposed into smaller chunks that were easier to handle separately, but still had the semblance of the overall task. Did you track the completion of this task in any way to ensure that no pieces were left undone, much like an algorithm keeps placeholders to trace a way back from a recursive trajectory? If

12. MTH 221 Competitive Success/snaptutorial.com MTH 221 Week 2 DQ 4 For more classes visit www.snaptutorial.com A common result in the analysis of sorting algorithms is that for n elements, the best average-case behavior of any sort algorithm— based solely on comparisons—is O(n log n). How might a sort algorithm beat this average-case behavior based on additional prior knowledge of the data elements? What sort of speed-up might you anticipate for such an algorithm? In other words, does it suddenly become O(n), O(n log n) or something similar?
