I'm interested in understanding the underlying logic of bitonic sort. Could you explain how this sorting algorithm works, specifically the steps and reasoning behind its process?

When the direction is set to ASCENDING, and if it is found that an element `a[i]` is greater than another element `a[j]`, then these two elements are interchanged to maintain the ascending order.

The algorithm for sorting a bitonic sequence relies on the direction of the sequence, which can be either ascending or descending.

Specifically, when `dir = ASCENDING`, `bitonicMerge` sorts the sequence in ascending order, ensuring all elements are in non-decreasing sequence. On the other hand, if `dir` indicates DESCENDING, the sequence is sorted in descending order, with elements arranged in non-increasing order.

Conversely, if the direction is DESCENDING, and the condition `a[i] > a[j]` is not true (implying `a[i]` should be less than `a[j] in a descending sequence), the elements are also interchanged to uphold the descending order.

This interchanging process is a crucial step in ensuring the bitonic sequence is correctly sorted based on the specified direction.
