        3. Binary search
          1. A linear search becomes more time-consuming as the data structre comes larger.It is a much quicker algorithm wich only works if Data is sorted.
            1. Advantages
              1. Far faster and more efficent than a linear search
              2. Disadvantages
                1. Requires data to be sorted, If the data is not sorted the Binary would not work.
