 *
 * A iterative version of a ternary search algorithm
 * This is better way to implement the ternary search, because a recursive version adds some overhead to a stack.
 * But in java the compile can transform the recursive version to iterative implicitly,
 * so there are no much differences between these two algorithms
 *
 * Worst-case performance   Θ(log3(N))
 * Best-case performance    O(1)
 * Average performance  Θ(log3(N))
 * Worst-case space complexity  O(1)

 * @see TernarySearch
