Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A binary search is designed to quickly find a specific item in a large list of items by dividing the list in half repeatedly until the item is found. It starts looking in the middle of a sorted list, and then determines whether it should continue higher or lower. This process continues until either the item is found or it is determined that the item is not in the list. Therefore, binary search is the best choice for this situation.
