Suppose we have an O(n) time algorithm that finds the median of an unsorted array. Now consider a QuickSort implementation where we first find the median using the above algorithm, then use the median as the pivot. What will be the worst-case time complexity of this modified QuickSort? Which one is faster for a data set of 1000 elements to be sorted? A) O(n^2 Logn) B) O(n^2) C) O(n Logn Logn) D) O(nLogn)

Suppose that the Insertion Sort sorting algorithm has a running time of T(n) = 8n2, while the Counting Sort algorithm has a running time of T(n) = 64n. Find the largest positive input size for which Insertion Sort runs at least as fast as Counting Sort.
