This method searches the long array for specified long value using binary search algorithm. Please note that the long array MUST BE SORTED before it can be searched using binarySearch method. This method returns the index of the value to be searched, if found in the array. Otherwise it returns (- (X) - 1) where X is the index where the the search value would be inserted. i.e. index of first element that is grater than the search value or array.length, if all elements of an array are less than the search value. */ //sort long array using Arrays.sort method Arrays.sort(longArray); //value to search long searchValue = 2; //since 2 is present in long array, index of it would be returned long intResult = Arrays.binarySearch(longArray,searchValue); System.out.println("Result of binary search of 2 is : " + intResult); //lets search something which is not in long array ! searchValue = 3; intResult = Arrays.binarySearch(longArray,searchValue); System.out.println("Result of binary search of 3 is : " + intResult); } } /* Output would be Result of binary search of 2 is : 1 Result of binary search of 3 is : -3 */ |
