Suppose I have chosen a number between two limits, say 0 and 100. Your task is to guess the number. All I will report is that your guess is too high, too low, or correct. Draw a flowchart of your process if each successive guess is midway between your last guess and the current upper or lower extreme value. (If your first guess is 40 and I say, “too low,” your next guess is 70 and I say, “too high,” your third guess should be 55.) Use only integers.
