SP9650 TRIPINV - Mega Inversions
Description
The n^2 upper bound for any sorting algorithm
is easy to obtain: just take two elements
that are misplaced with respect to each other
and swap them. Conrad conceived an algorithm
that proceeds by taking not two, but three misplaced
elements. That is, take three elements
ai > aj > ak with i < j < k and place them in
order ak; aj ; ai. Now if for the original algorithm
the steps are bounded by the maximum number
of inversions n(n-1)/2, Conrad is at his wits' end as
to the upper bound for such triples in a given sequence. He asks you to write a program
that counts the number of such triples.
