In this practical you will begin work on Task 1 of your assignment. Task 1 gives you an understanding of how to adapt algorithms to alternative datatypes. Note that the basic strategy for mergeSort is the same as on arrays --- the only difference is the implementation of the merge function.

The programs you will need for this practical are found at the Assignments page.
