Prompt
Test students' ability to analyze and compare QuickSort, MergeSort, and HeapSort with respect to time (best/average/worst), space usage, and stability across input distributions (random, sorted, nearly-sorted, reverse-sorted, many duplicates). Tasks: state theoretical complexities, explain in-place vs extra-space and stability differences, show how pivot choice/implementation affects QuickSort, predict and justify performance on each distribution, and recommend algorithms for specific scenarios.
