Description
In this problem, you have to analyze a particle sorting algorithm. the algorithm processes a sequence of n distinct integers by swapping two adjacent sequence elements until the sequence is sorted in ascending order. for the input sequence
9 1 0 5 4,
Ultra-QuickSort produces the output
0 1 4 5 9.
Your task is to determine how swap operations Ultra-QuickSort needs to perform in order to sort a given input sequence.
Input
The input contains several test cases. every test case begins with a line that contains a single integer n <500,000 -- the length of the input sequence. each of the following n lines contains a single integer 0 ≤ a [I] ≤ 999,999,999, the I-th input sequence element. input is terminated by a sequence of length n = 0. this sequence must not be processed.
Output
For every input sequence, your program prints a single line containing an integer number op, the minimum number of swap operations necessary to sort the given input sequence.

Calculate the number of reverse orders
Question Analysis: Previously, I used to use a tree array to calculate the number of reverse orders and add the method of merging and sorting to make it easier to implement. Merging and sorting are decomposed from top to bottom and merged from bottom to bottom, the two intervals of each merge are sorted in order, which brings us a great benefit in finding the number of reverse orders.
We divide a large interval [l, r] into [l, mid], [mid + 1, r]. Obviously, each time we only need one number in the left interval, the number of reverse orders of a number in the right interval. You do not need to consider the number of reverse orders in the left interval and the right interval, because the merge is from bottom to top, we have already obtained results in their substates for the number of backward orders in the left and right intervals. Therefore, when merging from the bottom to the top, the number of reverse orders for each layer is the number of reverse orders for the last entire interval. Very nice application, with a deeper understanding of Recursion
