keep two pointers and compare the two numbers they point to. Move the pointer which points to the smaller or equal number. End loop when two pointers reach the end.

Merge sort is the best...many languages have this function inbuilt...else this can also be done manually, assume two vectors A [1,2,3,4] And B[5,6,7,8]...merge them...compare the last value of A and first value of B...in our case 4<5 is true...thus the result...if it is false then move the number up and then compare it with the previous number and so on...
