/*
Summary: Merge sort is a divide and conquer
comparison-based sorting algorithm. It works as follows:-
1. Divide the unsorted list into n sublists,
each containing 1 element (a list of 1 element is considered sorted).
2. Repeatedly merge sublists to produce new
sublists until there is only 1 sublist remaining.
This will be the sorted list.
Complexity - O(n·log n)
