        int arr[] = {5, 7, 9, 11, 15, 20, 30, 45, 89, 97};
        
        System.out.print("Enter number to search: ");
        int n = in.nextInt();
        
        int l = 0, h = arr.length - 1, index = -1;
        while (l <= h) {
            int m = (l + h) / 2;
            if (arr[m] < n)
                l = m + 1;
            else if (arr[m] > n)
                h = m - 1;
            else {
