- * A iterative version of a ternary search algorithm This is better way to

+ * Ternary search is a divide-and-conquer algorithm that splits the array into three parts
+ * instead of two, as in binary search. This implementation is iterative, reducing the overhead
+ * associated with recursive function calls. However, the recursive version can also be optimized
+ * by the Java compiler to resemble the iterative version, resulting in similar performance.

+ * This class implements the {@link SearchAlgorithm} interface, providing a generic search method
