Chapter 8.3, Problem 2E

(a)

To determine

The sequence of steps in a binary search to x= 7 in the list 3,5,7,20,12,15,17,22,24,30,31. Also find the number of times x is compared with an element in the list and the number of times would it be compared with an element in the list if we employed a linear search.

(b)

To determine

The sequence of steps in a binary search to x= 30 in the list 3, 5, 7, 20, 12, 15, 17, 22, 24, 30, 31. Also find the number of times x is compared with an element in the list and the number of times would it be compared with an element in the list if we employed a linear search.

(c)

To determine

The sequence of steps in a binary search to x = 16 in the list 3, 5, 7, 20, 12, 15, 17, 22, 24, 30, 31. Also find the number of times x is compared with an element in the list and the number of times would it be compared with an element in the list if we employed a linear search.
