C++ string array binary search
- by Jose Vega
string Haystack[] = { "Alabama", "Alaska", "American Samoa", "Arizona", "Arkansas", "California", "Colorado", "Connecticut", "Delaware", "District of Columbia",
"Florida", "Georgia", "Guam", "Hawaii", "Idaho", "Illinois", "Indiana", "Iowa", "Kansas", "Kentucky",
"Louisiana", "Maine", "Maryland", "Massachusetts", "Michigan", "Minnesota", "Mississippi", "Missouri", "Montana", "Nebraska",
"Nevada", "New Hampshire", "New Jersey", "New Mexico", "New York", "North Carolina", "North Dakota", "Northern Mariana Islands", "Ohio", "Oklahoma",
"Oregon", "Pennsylvania", "Puerto Rico", "Rhode Island", "South Carolina", "South Dakota", "Tennessee", "Texas", "US Virgin Islands", "Utah",
"Vermont", "Virginia", "Washington", "West Virginia", "Wisconsin", "Wyoming"};
string Needle = "Virginia";
if(std::binary_search(Haystack, Haystack+56, Needle))
cout<<"Found";
If I also wanted to find the location of the needle in the string array, is there an "easy" way to find out?
