Description

Enhanced BinarySearch.java with comprehensive documentation to make the algorithm more accessible for beginners and interview preparation.

Changes Made

  • Added detailed JavaDoc with @param, @return, @throws tags
  • Included step-by-step algorithm walkthrough example
  • Added inline comments explaining each code section
  • Documented time and space complexity analysis
  • Provided concrete usage examples with expected outputs
  • Explained edge cases and overflow prevention technique

Motivation

As someone preparing for technical interviews, I found the existing documentation could be more detailed for beginners. This enhancement:

  • Helps newcomers understand binary search implementation
  • Serves as a reference for interview preparation
  • Maintains code quality with professional documentation standards

What This PR Does NOT Change

  • ✅ No code logic modified
  • ✅ No algorithm behavior changed
  • ✅ Only documentation improvements
  • ✅ All existing tests will pass

Thank you for reviewing my PR! I see the automated checks have identified some issues. I'm new to this project and would appreciate guidance on the best way to address them. Should I install clang-format locally, or is there another approach you'd recommend?

I'm eager to learn and make the necessary fixes! 🙏
