Java Pseudocode Questions

1) Given the pseudocode for performing Binary search in an array of elements sorted in
ascending order. What operation must be implemented in the 3rd so that the execution of binary
search is successful?
1. Middle element should be compared with x.
2. If x and the middle element match, we return the middle index.
3. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
4. Else (x is smaller than the middle element) recur for the left half
A. Else if x is greater than the middle element, then x can only lie in the right half subarray after
the middle element. So we recursively search for the right
B. Else if x is greater than the middle element, then x can only lie in the left half subarray after
the middle element. So we recursively search for left
C. None of the above

middle element. So we recursively search for the right
