Public Class Program
	Public Shared Function binarySearch(ByVal array As Integer(), ByVal element As Integer, ByVal low As Integer, ByVal high As Integer) As Integer
        While low <= high
            Dim mid As Integer = low + (high - low) / 2
            
			If array(mid) = element Then Return mid

            If array(mid) < element Then
                low = mid + 1
            Else
                high = mid - 1
            End If
        End While

        Return -1
    End Function

    Public Shared Sub Main()
        Dim array As Integer() = {3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 10, 12, 20, 27, 30, 31}
        Dim number_to_find As Integer = 9
			
        Dim index As Integer = binarySearch(array, number_to_find, 0, array.Length)

        If index = -1 Then
            Console.WriteLine("Not found")
        Else
            Console.WriteLine("Found at index: " & index)
        End If
    End Sub
End Class
