B
A binary search
C
A number search
D
A search engine
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Answer: Correct option is 3) If there are two numbers that are equal to the search item, it can pick any one of those depending on the implementation. Explanation: A binary search algorithm is an alternative to linear/sequential search algorithm.

Detailed explanation-2: -Binary Search is a searching algorithm for finding an element’s position in a sorted array. In this approach, the element is always searched in the middle of a portion of an array.

Detailed explanation-3: -The Binary Search Approach Binary searches are efficient algorithms based on the concept of “divide and conquer” that improves the search by recursively dividing the array in half until you either find the element or the list gets narrowed down to one piece that doesn’t match the needed element.

Detailed explanation-4: -Binary Search is a searching algorithm used in a sorted array by repeatedly dividing the search interval in half. The idea of binary search is to use the information that the array is sorted and reduce the time complexity to O(Log n).

Detailed explanation-5: -Searching Algorithm: Linear Search. Sentinel Linear Search. Binary Search. Meta Binary Search | One-Sided Binary Search.
