Binary Search Algorithm Flowchart

Binary search finds a target in a sorted array by halving the search window. It computes the midpoint, compares it to the target, and eliminates the half that cannot contain it. If low exceeds high, the element is absent.

“Flowchart of binary search: set low and high, loop while low ≤ high, compute mid, return mid if it matches the target, otherwise move low or high, and return -1 when the loop ends.”

그 이면의 의사결정을 읽어 보세요.

01Loop condition "low <= high" is the sentinel

when low crosses high, -1 is returned.

02

Two separate update branches (sethi, setlo) make the asymmetric narrowing explicit and verifiable.

03Mid computed as (low + high) / 2

in production code use low + (high - low) / 2 to prevent integer overflow.

Extend to binary search on answer space (binary search on result) for optimization problems.
