combine sort javascript code example
Example: array sorting javascript mergesort
// Merge Sort (Recursive)
function mergeSort (unsortedArray) {
// No need to sort the array if the array only has one element or empty
if (unsortedArray.length <= 1) {
return unsortedArray;
}
// In order to divide the array in half, we need to figure out the middle
const middle = Math.floor(unsortedArray.length / 2);
// This is where we will be dividing the array into left and right
const left = unsortedArray.slice(0, middle);
const right = unsortedArray.slice(middle);
// Using recursion to combine the left and right
return merge(
mergeSort(left), mergeSort(right)
);
}
