Merge Sort in DSA (Data Structures & Algorithms)
Merge Sort is a popular divide-and-conquer sorting algorithm.
It works by repeatedly dividing the array into halves, sorting each half, and then merging the sorted halves.

It’s one of the most efficient general-purpose sorting algorithms with a guaranteed O(n log n) time complexity.

How Merge Sort Works
Merge Sort follows 3 main steps:
1. Divide
Split the array into two halves until each sub-array has only 1 element.
2. Conquer
Recursively sort the two halves.
3. Merge

Combine the sorted halves into a single sorted array.
