Write a Python function that implements binary search. The function takes two parameters – a file name and the value it is searching for. Your function should read in this file and similarly formatted files. Assume that the input file, such as data.txt, is sorted. Your code should return two values: (1) the number of comparisons performed to find/not find the value and (2) the index position of the value (or -1 if it is not found). Please comment on code so I can better understand. Try not to use any online sources because l've probably already looked at them and I want further understanding, if so please link them so I know if l've already searched through that example.
