This approach involves breaking down the problem into smaller subproblems, solving each subproblem recursively, and then combining the results. This is a classic Divide and Conquer approach which can be applied to a variety of problems, such as sorting algorithms (e.g., Merge Sort).
Time Complexity: O(n log n)
Space Complexity: O(n)

This Java code implements the Merge Sort algorithm. It defines a merge
function to combine two sorted arrays into a single sorted array during the sorting process. The merge sort is recursively applied to each half of the array.
Dynamic Programming (DP) is an approach that solves complex problems by breaking them down into simpler subproblems and storing the results to avoid recomputing. It's particularly useful for optimization problems where decisions depend on previous decisions.
Time Complexity: O(n)
Space Complexity: O(n)

This Java code provides a dynamic programming implementation to find Fibonacci numbers. The fib
method uses an integer array to store intermediate results to ensure the function runs in linear time.
