Understanding the minimum predicate search pattern
Binary search is a very powerful search technique to search for an item in a sorted sequence. However, at its core, it's a decision-making technique that exploits the ordered nature of a sequence. There are many problems where we may not be given a sorted sequence, but an ordered search space where every input may either be a valid solution or not. The minimum predicate search algorithm generalizes the binary search algorithm to find the minimum value that satisfies a predicate function.

The minimum predicate search is the technique to find the minimum value in the search space at which the predicate flips.
