tim sort Algorithm
It is also used to sort arrays of non-primitive type in Java SE 7, on the Android platform, in GNU Octave, on V8, and Swift. Timsort is a hybrid stable sorting algorithm, derived from merge sort and insertion sort, designed to perform well on many kinds of real-universe data.

return binary_search(lst, item, mid + 1, end)
elif lst[mid] > item:
return binary_search(lst, item, start, mid - 1)
else:
return mid
