Computer Science - Algorithms - Merge sort - Divide and Merge

Visual steps of merge sort on [38, 27, 43, 3, 9, 82, 10]. 7 steps to arrange: 1) Original array [38,27,43,3,9,82,10]. 2) Split into [38,27,43,3] and [9,82,10]. 3) Split further: [38,27] [43,3] [9,82] [10]. 4) Split to singles: [38][27][43][3][9][82][10]. 5) Merge pairs in order: [27,38] [3,43] [9,82
