When we have two sorted lists of numbers in non-descending order, and we need to merge them into one sorted list, we can simply compare the first two elements of the lists, extract the smaller one and attach it to the end of the new list, and repeat until one of the two original lists become empty, then we attach the remaining numbers to the end of the new list and it's done. This takes linear time. Now, try to give an algorithm using O(n log k) time to merge k sorted lists (you can also assume that they contain numbers in non-descending order) into one sorted list, where n is the total number of elements in all the input lists. Use a binary heap for k- way merging.
