(Solved) : Exercises 23 5 Referring Back Searching Problem See Exercise 21 3 Observe Sequence Sorted Q44040064 . . .
Exercises 2.3-5 Referring back to the searching problem (see Exercise 2.1-3), observe that if the sequence A is sorted, we can check the midpoint of the sequence against v and eliminate half of the sequence from further consideration. Binary search is an algorithm that repeats this procedure, halving the size of the remaining portion of the sequence each time. Write pseudocode, either iterative or recursive, for binary search. Argue that the worst-case running time of binary search is (lg n).
