Summary

ARRAY SEARCH
This involves identifying a search value and march it with the other array contents to identify whether it is in that array or not.For example;
Binary Search coding
Set MIN_INDEX = LBound(Array)
Set MAX_INDEX = UBound(Array)

Do While MIN_INDEX <= MAX_INDEX
Set MIDDLE_INDEX = INT((MIN_INDEX + MAX_INDEX) / 2)
If SEARCH_ITEM < ARRAY_ITEM(MIDDLE_INDEX) Then
Set MAX_INDEX = MIDDLE_INDEX – 1
ElseIf SEARCH_ITEM > ARRAY_ITEM(MIDDLE_INDEX) Then
Set MIN_INDEX = MIDDLE_INDEX + 1
Else
' Item has been found at MIDDLE_INDEX of array
Exit Do
End If
Loop
SORTING ARRAYS
Sorting involves arranging array elements in a given order (like ascending or descending) and using a given criteria (like order of column).One of the simplest methods to sort an array is an insertion sort. An example of an insertion sort occurs in everyday life while playing cards. To sort the cards in your hand you extract a card, shift the remaining cards, and then insert the extracted card in the correct place. This process is repeated until all the cards are in the correct sequence.
