<DT><B>Description</B><DD><P><CODE>bsearch</CODE> searches a sorted array for a member that
matches the one pointed to by <CODE>key</CODE>. <CODE>base</CODE> is the address of the array,
<CODE>n</CODE> is the number of elements, <CODE>size</CODE> the size of an element and <CODE>cmp</CODE>
the function used to compare the members against the key. The function returns
a pointer to the member found, or <CODE>NULL</CODE> if there was no match.</P>
<DT><B>Limits</B><DD><P>
<UL>
<LI>The contents of the array must be sorted in ascending order according to
the compare function given.</LI>
<LI>If there are multiple members that match the key, the function will
return one of the members.</LI>
<LI>The function is only available as fastcall function, so it may only
be used in presence of a prototype.</LI>
