Binary Serach : Swift

Binary search is an efficient search algorithm used to locate a specific element in a sorted array or list. It works by repeatedly dividing the search space in half until the target element is found. In Swift, binary search is typically implemented recursively or iteratively. The time complexity of binary search is O(log n), where n is the number of elements in the array. This makes it highly efficient for large data sets as it eliminates half of the remaining search space at each step, significantly reducing the search time.
