""" Find the kth smallest element in linear time using divide and conquer. Recall we can do this trivially in O(nlogn) time. Sort the list and access kth element in constant time. This is a divide and conquer algorithm that can find a solution in O(n) time. For more information of this algorithm: https://web.stanford.edu/class/archive/cs/cs161/cs161.1138/lectures/08/Small08.pdf """ from __future__ import annotations from random import choice def random_pivot(lst): """ Choose a random pivot for the list.
