Answer / guest

Binary search is search all. sequential search is the
linear serach.

Example for Search all: File contains 100 records. supose
if u r searching for 75 th record, first entire file
divided into two parts, it will check , whether record is
in first half or second.. like that file ds divded into
diffrent parts

sequential serach: if the file contains 100 records, spose
if u r looking for 75th record, it will start serach from
first record...

Answer / shyamendra

Binary search is attampt on file which is in sorted
order.Search All is the key word.Only one 'WHEN'
& 'AND'.Only '=' is used.
While Linear search can be attempt on any
file.Any logical operation is possible.Multiple 'WHEN' are
possible.Index is set to 1 before starting searching.When
table size is small then only we use this.

Answer / boxee

binary search is fast because
it check the element mid
is element is less
it set the beg
mid=(beg+end)/2;
if(value>a[mid])
{
beg=mid+1;
}
else
{
end=mid-1;
}

Answer / muthu

binary search runs in O(logn) time whereas linear search
runs in O(n) times thus binary search has better
performance.

It is to be noted that in binary search MID=(start+end)/2
is to be found
but in linear search there is no such condition

Answer / anupam

binary search is performed by calculating mid point whereas sequential search is performed by sorting all elements.prior is the faster.
