As a divide-and-conquer algorithm, Mergesort breaks the input array into subarrays and recursively sort them. When the sizes of sub-arrays are small, the overhead of many recursive calls makes the algorithm inefficient. This problem can be remedied by choosing a small value of S as a threshold for the size of sub-arrays. When the size of a sub-a…
