Refined analysis. Refine the mathematical model to better explain the experimental results in the table given in the text. Specifically, show that the average number of compares for a successful search in a tree built from random keys approaches the limit 2 ln N + 2γ - 3 ≈ 1.39 lg N - 1.85 as N increases, where γ = .57721… is Euler’s constant. Hint: Referring to the quicksort analysis in section2.3, use the fact that the integral of 1/x approaches ln N + γ.
