/* Binary Search: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_search_algorithm
*
* Search a sorted array by repeatedly dividing the search interval
* in half. Begin with an interval covering the whole array. If the value of the
* search key is less than the item in the middle of the interval, narrow the interval
* to the lower half. Otherwise narrow it to the upper half. Repeatedly check until the
* value is found or the interval is empty.
