Make a sorted integer array a[i]=i, i=0,…,n-1. Let bs(a, n,x) be a binary search program that returns the index i of array a[0..n-1] where a[i]=x. Obviously, the result is bs(a, n,x)=x, and the binary search function can be tested using the loop:
for(j=0; j for(i=0; i
Select the largest n your software can support and then K so that this loop with an iterative version of bs runs 3 seconds or more. Then measure and compare this run time and the run time of the loop that uses a recursive version of bs. Compare these run times using maximum compiler optimization (release version) and the slowest version (minimum optimization or the debug version). If you have a desktop machine, use it. If you must use a laptop, make measurements using AC power, and then the same measurements using only the battery.
What conclusions can you derive from these experiments? Who is faster? Why? What is the time for executing a single bs program? If you have different compilers you can compare them.

Explanation- Since in recursive binary search there will always be a overhead of manipulating call stack the time taken by recursive binary search is a little more than iterative binary search. Though the time complexity of both the algorithm is O(nLogn).
