Hint :

  • β€’ Binary search requires a sorted list.
  • β€’ Initialize low and high pointers.
  • β€’ Calculate mid and compare with target.
  • β€’ Adjust pointers based on comparison.
  • β€’ Return index or -1 if not found.

Detailed Answer :

def binary_search(sorted_list, target):
    # Initialize low and high pointers
    low = 0
    high = len(sorted_list) - 1

    # Continue searching while low is less than or equal to high
    while low <= high:
        # Calculate the middle index
        mid = (low + high) // 2

        # Compare target with the middle element
        if sorted_list[mid] == target:
            return mid
        elif sorted_list[mid] > target:
            # Target is in the left half
            high = mid - 1
        else:
            # Target is in the right half
            low = mid + 1

    # If target is not found
    return -1

Questions you're too afraid to ask

Nope. CTRLpotato stays out of the way. It won't show up in screen shares or leave visual traces on your desktop.

For extra privacy during full-screen assessments or screen-sharing calls:
1. Scan the QR code from the desktop app using your phone.
2. A secure viewer opens in your mobile browser.
3. Set your phone to stay awake and lean it somewhere visible β€” like against your laptop.
4. The app continues running in the background β€” use shortcuts as usual. Answers will show up instantly on your phone.
