Answer#3 is correct.
If data is not sorted, Program Compilation wont show any

Search all is a binary search and is searched with the help
of key. so the table should be necessarily sorted

I think answer#2 is correct.
But i think the main intention of the question was what if
we dont sort the input data will the Search all work or not
work?
So if this is what intended by the question,than i think
that definately Search all will work but it will give
unpredictable results.
Correct me if i am wrong, in this scenario.
