Subject: sequential if $size not given
Date: Tue, 8 Jun 2010 13:01:14 +0200
To: bug-Search-Binary [...] rt.cpan.org
From: Krzysztof Żelechowski <giecrilj [...] stegny.2a.pl>
If $size is not given, the search is sequential, not binary. I do not think it is a reasonable default; if I wanted sequential search, I would just use grep. Workaround: always pass 01 (or another reasonably small value) for searching random-access media.
