In a binary search algorithm, what happens if the middle element is less than the target?
Steps
Concepts
Step 1: Start with a sorted array and a target value you want to find.
Step 2: Find the middle element of the array.
Step 3: Compare the middle element with the target value.
Step 4: If the middle element is less than the target, it means the target must be in the right half of the array.
Step 5: Discard the left half of the array (including the middle element) and focus on the right half.
Step 6: Repeat the process with the new right half until you find the target or the array is empty.
