Program to implement Binary Search Algorithm

#include <iostream.h>
template<class T>
int binarySearch(T a[], int n, T& x)
{
	int left = 0;                       // left end of segment
	int right = n - 1;                  // right end of segment
	while (left <= right)
	{
		int middle = (left + right)/2;   // middle of segment
		if (x == a[middle]) return middle;
		if (x > a[middle]) left = middle + 1;
		else right = middle - 1;
	}
	return -1; // x not found
}
int main()

	int a[10],n,t;

	cin>>n;
