Another way to analyze randomized quick-sort is to use a recurrence equation. In this case, we let T(n) denote the expected running time of randomized quicksort, and we observe that, because of the worst-case partitions for good and bad splits, we can write

where bn is the time needed to partition a list for a given pivot and concatenate the result sublists after the recursive calls return. Show, by induction, that T(n) is O(nlogn).
