KarateChopDomain 1.0.0

KarateChop Library

The KarateChop library provides an efficient binary search implementation for searching sorted arrays of integers.

Installation

You can install the KarateChop library via NuGet Package Manager with the following command:

Install-Package KarateChopDomain

Usage

To use the KarateChop class in your project, follow these steps:

1. Ensure you have installed the KarateChop library via NuGet.
2. Include the KarateChopDomain namespace in your file.
3. Use the Chop method to perform a binary search on a sorted array of integers.

Example

using System;
using KarateChopDomain;

namespace KarateChopExample
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            int[] sortedArray = { 1, 3, 5, 7, 9 };
            int target = 5;
            int result = KarateChop.Chop(target, sortedArray);

            if (result != -1)
            {
                Console.WriteLine($"Target found at index {result}.");
            }
            else
            {
                Console.WriteLine("Target not found in the array.");
            }
        }
    }
}

Method Details

Chop(int target, int[] array)

• Parameters:

  • target: The integer value to search for in the array.
  • array: A sorted array of integers to search within.

• Returns:

  • The integer index of the target value in the array, or -1 if the target is not found.

Example Scenarios

1. Target Present in the Array:

   • For target = 5 and array = { 1, 3, 5, 7, 9 }, the method returns 2 (index of the target).

2. Target Not Present in the Array:

   • For target = 6 and array = { 1, 3, 5, 7, 9 }, the method returns -1 (target not found).
