Hello,

HW1 says:

"The easiest way is to merge all rows in the input array into an 1D-array then sort it using IntroSort. The implementation of this strategy is provided to establish the baseline: HybridSortBaseline. Your goal is to design a sorting mechanism that gives a noticeable speed-up over this baseline."

We have to do something other than "merging all rows in the input array into a 1D-array and then sorting it", correct?

yeah, you can't combine them into a 1d and then sort it. you have to do something before at least

Got it, thanks
