Generic implementation of Merge Sort in Java

[abranhe]

I have implemented the MergeSort algorithm, in which I have created a void sort(arr) method, that takes the array and sort it, I am repeating code for the method to pass the array parameter of Integers or Doubles. What about String, ... etc

This implementation works so far, but is there any way to implement this generically this algorithm?

You can use generic data type which can take any Object which implements comparable

@abranhe , I will try this one.

@rupeshA there is a posible implementation going on already on #7 you can review it and help with it or implement generic for other algorithms, since other algorithms are implemented only for integers.
