37 Performs a search over an array of @var{nmemb} elements pointed to by
38 @var{base} for a member that matches the object pointed to by @var{key}.
39 The size of each member is specified by @var{size}. The array contents
40 should be sorted in ascending order according to the @var{compar}
41 comparison function. This routine should take three arguments: the first
42 two point to the @var{key} and to an array member, and the last is passed
43 down unchanged from @code{bsearch_r}'s last argument. It should return an
44 integer less than, equal to, or greater than zero if the @var{key} object
45 is respectively less than, matching, or greater than the array member.

59 * The code below is a bit sneaky. After a comparison fails, we
60 * divide the work in half by moving either left or right. If lim
61 * is odd, moving left simply involves halving lim: e.g., when lim
62 * is 5 we look at item 2, so we change lim to 2 so that we will
63 * look at items 0 & 1. If lim is even, the same applies. If lim
64 * is odd, moving right again involes halving lim, this time moving
65 * the base up one item past p: e.g., when lim is 5 we change base
66 * to item 3 and make lim 2 so that we will look at items 3 and 4.
67 * If lim is even, however, we have to shrink it by one before
68 * halving: e.g., when lim is 4, we still looked at item 2, so we
69 * have to make lim 3, then halve, obtaining 1, so that we will only
