Halving is the the operation that takes an array A with n distinct numbers and separates it into two half-sized1 arrays A0 and A1, where all elements of A0 are smaller than all elements of A1. (Note that it is not required that A0 and A1 are sorted.) Prove that Halving can be done in linear time by presenting an algorithm and arguing its correctness and justifying the running time. You can describe the algorithm in words, if you wish. Just make it clear. You may also invoke any algorithms discussed in lecture in a black-box fashion without having to reprove its correctness.

You will be given two character arrays of the same size, one will contain a number of ships. ships will move around the character array based on which way they are facing and the route they are on. routes are given in the other array. the route consists of '-' and '|' for straight paths, '\' and '/' for curves, and '+' for intersections. there are ships on these routes. ships always face a direction, '^' for up, '> ' for right, 'v' for down, and '< ' for left. any time the ships hit a '\' or a '/' it will turn as you would expect a ship to turn (e.g. a '^' that moves into a '/' will turn right). at an intersection, ships will always continue straight through. all ships move at the same speed, ships take turns moving and all ships move during one 'tick'. the one in the most top left goes first, followed by those to its right, then the ones in the next row. it iterates along the rows and then down the columns. each ship moves one space on its turn moving along the route. your function needs to return the position of the first collision between two ships and the number of ticks before the crash occurred.

Write a method named addall that could be placed inside the hashintset class. this method accepts another hashintset as a parameter and adds all elements from that set into the current set, if they are not already present. for example, if a set s1 contains [1, 2, 3] and another set s2 contains [1, 7, 3, 9], the call of s1.addall(s2); would change s1 to store [1, 2, 3, 7, 9] in some order. you are allowed to call methods on your set and/or the other set. do not modify the set passed in. this method should run in o(n) time where n is the number of elements in the parameter set passed in.
