Hello everyone, my code is finally complete thanks to all of your help. One questions I have is regarding the reslts. I thought that Merge was faster than a heap sort. In my results however (when run on Borland c++) Heap comes out with a faster sorting time. The functions seem to be correct. Please help.....
Thanks
