You should learn to use www.google.com -- you can answer
a lot of your own questions this way. I entered the search
string

"binary search" algorithm

The first link it showed me is a pretty good explanation
of linear and binary search. Take a look at

http://www.aihorizon.com/essays/basi.../binsearch.htm

If you still have questions, Google said it had about
39,200 other links you could check. :-)
