Question

Need help making a java file that combines both linearSearch and binarySearch

•Both search methods must use the Comparable<T> interface and the compareTo() method.
•Your program must be able to handle different data types, i.e., use generics.
•For binarySearch, if you decide to use a midpoint computation formula that is different from
the textbook, explain that formula briefly as a comment within your code.

//code from textbook

//linearSearch

public static <T>
    boolean linearSearch(T[] data, int min, int max, T target) {
        int index = min;
        boolean found = false;
        while (!found && index <= max) {
            found = data [index].equals(target);
            index++;
        }
        return found;
    }

//binarySearch

    public static <T extends Comparable<T>>
    boolean binarySearch(T[] data, int min, int max, T target) {
        boolean found = false;
        int midpoint = (min + max)/2;
        if (data[midpoint].compareTo(target)==0)
            found = true;
        else if(data[midpoint].compareTo(target)>0) {
            if(min<=midpoint-1)
                found = binarySearch(data, min, midpoint-1, target);
        }
        else if (midpoint+1<=max)
            found=binarySearch(data, midpoint+1, max, target);
        return found;
    }
