 * bsearch - binary search an array of elements
 * @key: pointer to item being searched for
 * @base: pointer to first element to search
 * @num: number of elements
 * @size: size of each element
 * @cmp: pointer to comparison function
 *
 * This function does a binary search on the given array.  The
 * contents of the array should already be in ascending sorted order
 * under the provided comparison function.
 *
 * Note that the key need not have the same type as the elements in
 * the array, e.g. key could be a string and the comparison function
 * could compare the string with the struct's name field.  However, if
 * the key and elements in the array are of the same type, you can use
 * the same comparison function for both sort() and bsearch().
