Data Structures and Algorithms The Complete Masterclass - Implementing Binary Search – Part 1

The video tutorial explains the implementation of a binary search algorithm. It begins with setting up the function and defining the input parameters. The logic of binary search is detailed, including the calculation of middle elements and updating pointers based on conditions. The iterative process is explained, emphasizing the loop conditions and handling edge cases where the target is not found. The tutorial concludes with implementation examples and testing to demonstrate the algorithm's functionality.

What actions are taken when the middle element is equal to the target?

Describe what happens if the middle element is greater than the target.

What should be returned if the target is not found in the list?
