Getting Started:

Create a new Java project called A$05$SortingMethods.

Add a package called a$05$ with a public class A$05$ that includes the main method.

Add a folder called lib that includes algs$4.$jar.

Download the file Mystery.jar Download Mystery.jarand add it to the lib folder.

This JAR file includes a class Mystery with four static methods: sort$1,$ sort$2,$ sort$3,$ and sort$4.$ It allows you to run the methods, but it doesn't provide the source code.

Add both JAR files to the build path.

Identify Key Sorting Behaviors.

Collaborate with your partner to pinpoint observable runtime behaviors that can differentiate the sorting methods. Discuss and plan carefully as these behaviors will be your guiding light.

Write code that produces evidence of the sorting behaviors.

The code should generate outputs showcasing the distinct behaviors of the different sorting methods.

Use private methods, doc comments, and occasional inline comments to make your code clear and easy to read.

Your output should reflect your detective work and provide conclusive evidence of your findings.

Design outputs that present a clear and structured view of your findings.

Use descriptive labels that make matching the sorting methods to the algorithms they represent easy.
