Nonuniform distributions. Write a client that generates test data by randomly ordering objects using other distributions than uniform, including the following:

■ Gaussian

■ Poisson

Geometric

■ Discrete (see exercise for a special case)

Develop and test hypotheses about the effect of such input on the performance of the algorithms in this section.

Exercise

Equal keys. Formulate and validate hypotheses about the running time of insertion sort and selection sort for arrays that contain just two key values, assuming that the values are equally likely to occur.
