Define Binary search code example

Example 1: binary search

import java.util.Scanner;

public class Binarysearch {

	public static void main(String[] args) {
		int[] x= {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,16,18,20,21};
		Scanner scan=new Scanner(System.in);
		System.out.println("enter the key:");
		int key=scan.nextInt();
		int flag=0;
		int low=0;
		int high=x.length-1;
		int mid=0;
		while(low<=high)
		{
			mid=(low+high)/2;
			if(key<x[mid])
			{
				high=mid-1;
			}
			else if(key>x[mid])
			{
				low=mid+1;
			}
			else if(key==x[mid])
			{
				flag++;
				System.out.println("found at index:"+mid);
				break;
			}
		}
		if(flag==0)
		{
			System.out.println("Not found");
		}
		

	}

}

Example 2: binary search algorithm

#include <bits/stdc++.h>

using namespace std;

int binarySearch(int arr[], int l, int h, int key){
    if(l<=h){
        int mid = l + (h-l)/2;

        if(arr[mid] == key){
            return mid;
        }

        else if(arr[mid] > key){
            return binarySearch(arr, l, mid-1, key);
        }

        else if(arr[mid] < key){
            return binarySearch(arr,mid+1, h, key);
        }
    }       

    return -1;
}

int main(){
    int arr[] = {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10};
    int n = sizeof(arr)/sizeof(arr[0]);
    int key = 7;

    int result = binarySearch(arr,0,n-1,key);

    (result==-1)
        ? cout << "Element is not found in the array" << endl
        : cout << "Element is found at index " << result;

    return 0;

}
