+\subsection{Do something while merging}
+During the merging, the left half and the right half are both sorted; therefore, we can carry out operations like:
+\begin{enumerate}
+\item inversion count 
+\item range sum count 
+\end{enumerate}
+
+\runinhead{Count of Range Sum.} Make an array $A$ of sums, where \pyinline{A[i] = sum(nums[:i])}; and then feed to merge sort. Since both the left half and the right half are sorted, we can diff $A$ in $O(n)$ time to find range sum.

+\begin{python}
+def msort(A, lo, hi):
+  if hi - lo <= 1: return 0
+
+  mid = (lo + hi)/2
+  cnt = msort(A, lo, mid) + msort(A, mid, hi)
+
+  temp = []
+  i = j = r = mid
+  for l in xrange(lo, mid):
+    # range count
+    while i < hi and A[i] - A[l] <  LOWER: i += 1
+    while j < hi and A[j] - A[l] <= UPPER: j += 1

+  while r < hi:  # dangling right
+    temp.append(A[r])
+    r += 1
+
+  A[lo:hi] = temp

+
+Here, the implementation of merge sort use: 1 for-loop for the left half and 2 while-loop for the right half.

 \subsection{Stability}
 Definition: a stable sort preserves the \textbf{relative order of items with equal keys} (scenario: sorted by time then sorted by location).
