+ * The BinarySearch() algorithm searches the given container |aContainer| over
+ * the sorted index range [aBegin, aEnd) for an index |i| where
+ * |aContainer[i] == aTarget|.
+ * If such an index |i| is found, BinarySearch returns |true| and the index is
+ * returned via the outparam |aMatchOrInsertionPoint|. If no index is found,
+ * BinarySearch returns |false| and the outparam returns the first index in
+ * [aBegin, aEnd] where |aTarget| can be inserted to maintain sorted order.
+ *
+ * Example:
+ *
+ *   Vector<int> sortedInts = ...
+ *
+ *   size_t match;
+ *   if (BinarySearch(sortedInts, 0, sortedInts.length(), 13, &match)) {
+ *     printf("found 13 at %lu\n", match);
+ *   }
+ *
+ * The BinarySearchIf() version behaves similarly, but takes |aComparator|, a
+ * functor to compare the values with, instead of a value to find.
+ * That functor should take one argument - the value to compare - and return an
+ * |int| with the comparison result:
+ *
+ *   * 0, if the argument is equal to,
+ *   * less than 0, if the argument is greater than,
+ *   * greater than 0, if the argument is less than
+ *
+ * the value.
+ *
+ * Example:
+ *
+ *   struct Comparator {
+ *     int operator()(int aVal) const {
+ *       if (mTarget < aVal) { return -1; }
+ *       if (mTarget > aVal) { return 1; }
+ *       return 0;
+ *     }
+ *     explicit Comparator(int aTarget) : mTarget(aTarget) {}
+ *     const int mTarget;
+ *   };
+ *
+ *   Vector<int> sortedInts = ...
+ *
+ *   size_t match;
+ *   if (BinarySearchIf(sortedInts, 0, sortedInts.length(), Comparator(13), &match)) {
+ *     printf("found 13 at %lu\n", match);
+ *   }
+ *
