CONT

En pratique, quand on consulte une liste triée, on tient compte [à la fois] de l'élément recherché [et des] éléments de la liste qui lui sont comparés : par exemple, si l'on recherche le mot «ananas» dans un dictionnaire, on ouvrira le dictionnaire vers le début plutôt qu'au milieu. Ce principe est à la base [de la] recherche par interpolation.
