\DOC merge
\TYPE {merge : ('a -> 'a -> bool) -> 'a list -> 'a list -> 'a list}
\SYNOPSIS
Merges together two sorted lists with respect to a given ordering.
\DESCRIBE
If two lists {l1} and {l2} are sorted with respect to the given ordering {ord},
then {merge ord l1 l2} will merge them into a sorted list of all the elements.
The merge keeps any duplicates; it is not a set operation.
\FAILURE
Never fails, but if the lists are not appropriately sorted the results will not
in general be correct.
\EXAMPLE
{
# merge (<) [1;2;3;4;5;6] [2;4;6;8];;
val it : int list = [1; 2; 2; 3; 4; 4; 5; 6; 6; 8]
}
\SEEALSO
mergesort, sort, uniq.
