Mastering Binary Search in JavaScript Part I: Iterative, Recursive. Day 2 of 30 Days of DSA 🚀🦾

Introduction

Binary search is a powerful search algorithm that excels in finding elements within sorted arrays. It leverages the "divide and conquer" approach, repeatedly dividing the search space in half until the target element is located or determined to be absent. This post delves into implementing binary search in JavaScript using iterative and recursive techniques, along with exploring its application for element insertion.
