Efficiency of binary search, Data Structure & Algorithms

Assignment Help:

Each of the comparison in the binary search decrease the number of possible candidates where the key value can be searched by a factor of 2 as the array is divided into two halves in each iteration. Therefore, the maximum number of key comparisons is about log n. Thus, the order of binary search is O (log n).
