Problem 2 write a method that (a) returns an int[] , (b) takes in two sorted arrays (in descending order) and (c) returns an int [] with sorted values (in descending order) from the two sorted arrays. the method will also print out the number of compares done. int[] a = new int[]{18, 16, 15, 6, 2}; int[] b = new int[]{13, 12, 11, 7, 1}; public int[] sortarraysdes(int[] a, int[] b){ //your code here } the int[] returned should have all the integers from int[]a and int[]b in descending order.

Following are the Program in the Java Programming Language.

//define class

public class Main

{

//define function to merge and sort array

public static int[] sort_Array(int[] a, int[] b)

{

//set integer variable and initialize values

int x = 0, y = 0, k = 0, num = 0;

int n = a.length;

int n1 = b.length;

//set integer type array

int[] ar = new int[n+n1];

//set while loop

while (x<n && y <n1)

{

num++;

num++;

//set if conditional statement

if (a[x] > b[y])

ar[k++] = a[x++];

else

ar[k++] = b[y++];

num++;

}

//set the while loop

while (x < n)

{

num++;

ar[k++] = a[x++];

}

//set the while loop

while (y < n1)

{

num++;

ar[k++] = b[y++];

}

//print the total compares done

System.out.println("Number of compares done: " + n);

//return array

return ar;

}

//define main method

public static void main(String[] args)

{

//declaration and the initialization of array

int[] a = new int[]{18,16, 15, 6, 2};

int[] b = new int[]{13, 12, 11, 7, 1};

int[] ar;

//call function

ar = sort_Array(a, b);

//print message

System.out.println("\nThe resultant array is: \n");

//set for loop to print array

for(int x=0; x<ar.length; x++)

{

System.out.print(ar[x] + " ");

}

}

}

Output:

Number of compares done: 5

The resultant array is:

18 16 15 13 12 11 7 6 2 1

Explanation:

Here, we define a class "Main" inside the class, define a function "sort_Array()"and pass two integer type array argument "a" and "b".

Finally, define the main method inside it, we set two integer type array variable and initialize elements in them then, set the for loop to print the sorted elements of the array.

b. xor is the correct answer
