(a)
Trace the action of the binary search algorithm (Algorithm11.5.1) on the variables index, bot, top, mid, and thegiven values of x for the input array a [1] = Chia, a [2] = Doug, a [3] = Jan, a [4] = Jim, a [5] = José, a [6] = Mary, a [7] = Rob, a [8] = Roy, a [9] = Sue, a [10] = Usha, where alphabeticalordering is used to compare elements of the array.
