Which one is faster?
A binary search of an orderd set of elements in an array
or
a sequential search of the elements.

Answer Posted / ahan

The binary search is faster than the sequential search.The
complexity of binary search is 'log n' where as the
complexity of sequential search is 'n'.Since each time we
are proceeding we have to deal with only half of the
elements of the array than the previous one.So we can easily
get a number from an array of elements through binary search
than sequential search.
