Question 86

The telemetry system of a satellite records its pitch angle deviation (in degrees) from its target orbit at eight consecutive checkpoints in a one-dimensional array:

−0.15-0.15−0.150.420.420.42−0.88-0.88−0.881.121.121.12−0.04-0.04−0.040.670.670.67−0.23-0.23−0.230.050.050.05

State why a binary search algorithm cannot be used to locate a specific pitch angle deviation in this array.
