Q.

Under what case of Master’s theorem will the recurrence relation of binary search fall?

A. 1
B. 2
C. 3
D. it cannot be solved using master’s theorem
Answer» B. 2
Explanation: the recurrence relation of binary search is given by t(n) = t(n/2) + o(1). so we can observe that c = logba so it will fall under case 2 of master’s theorem.
