C Program to Read an Array and Search for an Element


Code:

#include   stdio.h

void main()
{
    int array[20];
    int i, low, mid, high, key, size;

    printf("Enter the size of an array\n");
    scanf("%d", &size);
    printf("Enter the array elements\n");
    for (i = 0; i < size; i++)
    {
        scanf("%d", &array[i]);
    }
    printf("Enter the key\n");
    scanf("%d", &key);
    /*  search begins */
    low = 0;
    high = (size - 1);
    while (low <= high)
    {
        mid = (low + high) / 2;
        if (key == array[mid])
        {
            printf("SUCCESSFUL SEARCH\n");
            return;
        }
        if (key < array[mid])
            high = mid - 1;
        else
            low = mid + 1;
    }
    printf("UNSUCCESSFUL SEARCH\n");
}


Output:
