Merge Arrays
Detailed guide and Python implementation for the 'Merge Arrays' problem.
Problem Statement
Write a function merge_sorted_arrays(arr1, arr2) that takes two sorted integer arrays arr1 and arr2 and merges them into a single sorted array, which is returned.
- •0 <= len(arr1), len(arr2) <= 10^4
- •-10^9 <= arr1[i], arr2[j] <= 10^9
Examples
arr1 = [1, 3, 5], arr2 = [2, 4, 6]
[1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]
We merge elements from both arrays sequentially preserving the sorted order.
