merge() Function in C++

This C++ program merges two sequences using merge() algorithm. This algorithm combines the elements present in the two sorted ranges into a new range given as an argument to the merge() routine.

Here is the source code of the C++ program which merges two sequences using merge() algorithm. The C++ program is successfully compiled and run on a Linux system. The program output is also shown below.
