归并排序（Merge Sort）

归并排序是建立在归并操作上的一种有效的排序算法。该算法是采用分治法（Divide and Conquer）的一个非常典型的应用。将已有序的子序列合并，得到完全有序的序列；即先使每个子序列有序，再使子序列段间有序。若将两个有序表合并成一个有序表，称为2-路归并。

1. 归并排序的算法描述

• 把长度为n的输入序列分成两个长度为n/2的子序列；
• 对这两个子序列分别采用归并排序；
• 将两个排序好的子序列合并成一个最终的排序序列。

3. 归并排序的算法分析

归并排序是一种稳定的排序方法。和选择排序一样，归并排序的性能不受输入数据的影响，但表现比选择排序好的多，因为始终都是O(nlogn）的时间复杂度。代价是需要额外的内存空间。

4. 归并排序的代码实现

1）JavaScript 代码实现

function mergeSort(arr) {  // 采用自上而下的递归方法
    var len = arr.length;
    if(len < 2) {
        return arr;
    }
    var middle = Math.floor(len / 2),
        left = arr.slice(0, middle),
        right = arr.slice(middle);
    return merge(mergeSort(left), mergeSort(right));
}

function merge(left, right)
{
    var result = [];

    while (left.length && right.length) {
        if (left[0] <= right[0]) {
            result.push(left.shift());
        } else {
            result.push(right.shift());
        }
    }

    while (left.length)
        result.push(left.shift());

    while (right.length)
        result.push(right.shift());

    return result;
}

2）Python 代码实现

def mergeSort(arr):
    import math
    if(len(arr)<2):
        return arr
    middle = math.floor(len(arr)/2)
    left, right = arr[0:middle], arr[middle:]
    return merge(mergeSort(left), mergeSort(right))

def merge(left,right):
    result = []
    while left and right:
        if left[0] <= right[0]:
            result.append(left.pop(0))
        else:
            result.append(right.pop(0));
    while left:
        result.append(left.pop(0))
    while right:
        result.append(right.pop(0));
    return result

3）Go 代码实现

func mergeSort(arr []int) []int {
        length := len(arr)
        if length < 2 {
                return arr
        }
        middle := length / 2
        left := arr[0:middle]
        right := arr[middle:]
        return merge(mergeSort(left), mergeSort(right))
}

func merge(left []int, right []int) []int {
        var result []int
        for len(left) != 0 && len(right) != 0 {
                if left[0] <= right[0] {
                        result = append(result, left[0])
                        left = left[1:]
                } else {
                        result = append(result, right[0])
                        right = right[1:]
                }
        }

        for len(left) != 0 {
                result = append(result, left[0])
                left = left[1:]
        }

        for len(right) != 0 {
                result = append(result, right[0])
                right = right[1:]
        }

        return result
}

4）Java 代码实现

public class MergeSort implements IArraySort {

    @Override
    public int[] sort(int[] sourceArray) throws Exception {
        // 对 arr 进行拷贝，不改变参数内容
        int[] arr = Arrays.copyOf(sourceArray, sourceArray.length);

        if (arr.length < 2) {
            return arr;
        }
        int middle = (int) Math.floor(arr.length / 2);

        int[] left = Arrays.copyOfRange(arr, 0, middle);
        int[] right = Arrays.copyOfRange(arr, middle, arr.length);

        return merge(sort(left), sort(right));
    }

    protected int[] merge(int[] left, int[] right) {
        int[] result = new int[left.length + right.length];
        int i = 0;
        while (left.length > 0 && right.length > 0) {
            if (left[0] <= right[0]) {
                result[i++] = left[0];
                left = Arrays.copyOfRange(left, 1, left.length);
            } else {
                result[i++] = right[0];
                right = Arrays.copyOfRange(right, 1, right.length);
            }
        }

        while (left.length > 0) {
            result[i++] = left[0];
            left = Arrays.copyOfRange(left, 1, left.length);
        }

        while (right.length > 0) {
            result[i++] = right[0];
            right = Arrays.copyOfRange(right, 1, right.length);
        }

        return result;
    }
}

{
    $len = count($arr);
    if ($len < 2) {
        return $arr;
    }
    $middle = floor($len / 2);
