What is the efficient solution?Radix sort•By first name, then middle, finally last name.•Then after every pass of sort, the bins can be combined as one file and proceed to the next sort.•Radix-sort(A,d)–For i=1 to d do•use a stable sort to sort array A on digit i.•Lemma 8.3: Given n d-digit numbers in which each digit can take on up to k possible values, Radix-sort correctly sorts these numbers in (d(n+k )) time. •If d is constant and k=O(n), then time is
