-.Sh NAME
-.Nm bsearch
-.Nd binary search of a sorted table
-.Sh SYNOPSIS
-.Fd #include <stdlib.h>
-.Ft void *
-.Fn bsearch "const void *key" "const void *base" "size_t nmemb" "size_t size" "int (*compar) (const void *, const void *)"
-.Sh DESCRIPTION
-The
-.Fn bsearch
-function searches an array of
-.Fa nmemb
-objects, the initial member of which is
-pointed to by
-.Fa base ,
-for a member that matches the object pointed to by
-.Fa key .
-The size of each member of the array is specified by
-.Fa size .
-.Pp
-The contents of the array should be in ascending sorted order according
-to the comparison function referenced by
-.Fa compar .
-The
-.Fa compar
-routine
-is expected to have
-two arguments which point to the
-.Fa key
-object and to an array member, in that order, and should return an integer
-less than, equal to, or greater than zero if the
-.Fa key
-object is found, respectively, to be less than, to match, or be
-greater than the array member.
-.Sh RETURN VALUES
-The
-.Fn bsearch
-function returns a pointer to a matching member of the array, or a null
-pointer if no match is found.
-If two members compare as equal, which member is matched is unspecified.
-.Sh SEE ALSO
-.Xr db 3 ,
-.Xr lsearch 3 ,
-.Xr qsort 3
-.\" .Xr tsearch 3
-.Sh STANDARDS
-The
-.Fn bsearch
-function conforms to
-.St -ansiC .
