Implementierung der binären Suche (rekursiv und iterativ) in einem C-Programm

Step 1 : Find the middle element of array. using ,
middle = initial_value + end_value / 2 ;
Step 2 : If middle = element, return ‘element found’ and index.
Step 3 : if middle > element, call the function with end_value = middle - 1 .
Step 4 : if middle < element, call the function with start_value = middle + 1 .
Step 5 : exit.

Element found at index : 4
