Bitonic search. An array is bitonic if it is comprised of an increasing sequence of integers followed immediately by a decreasing sequence of integers. Write a program that, given a bitonic array of N distinct int values, determines whether a given integer is in the array. Your program should use ~3 lg N compares in the worst case. Extra credit: use only ~2 lg N compares in the worst case.
