Alright, so, the first challenge for this section 4

4

is gonna be pretty easy. 5

5

Gonna be a warm up challenge. 6

6

What I want you to do is modify the merge sort algorithm 7

7

so that it sorts the integers in descending order. 8

8

Now, I want you to sort the usual example array 9

9

that we used for most of the sort algorithms 10

10

and in the resources section there's a start project 11

11

that basically contains what we did 12

12

in the merge sort implementation video. 13

13

So, it has the array and then the call to merge sort 14

14

and then it has the merge sort code 15

15

except the merge sort code that we implemented 16

16

sorts the integers in ascending order. 17

17

So, I want you to modify the implementation 18

18

so that it sorts the integers in descending order. 19

19

I strongly encourage you to actually do these challenges. 20

20

Even if you struggle and you don't figure it out, 21

21

you're going to be a lot farther ahead by trying 22

22

than you will be if you just click the next video button 23

23

and watch the solution. 24

So, give it a try and I'll see you in the solution video.
