/*This is a java program to find kth smallest element form the given sequence of numbers.
This could be solved by using Quick sort algorithm, where we partition around the pivot element,
the entire sequence of numbers is broken down to two, we arrange the number such that numbers smaller than pivot is kept in the first sequence and
numbers larger than the pivot is kept in the second sequence. During this comparison we find the kth smallest element.*/
