An array A of length n with distinct elements is said to be bitonic if there is an index 1 ≤ i ≤ n such that A[1..i] is sorted in the non-decreasing order and A[i+1..n] is sorted in the non-increasing order. Which ONE of the following represents the best possible asymptotic bound for the worst-case number of comparisons by an algorithm that searches for an element in a bitonic array A?
