我上大学期间一直在通过编码算法来练习Java。我编码的算法之一是二进制搜索：

public class BinarySearch {

    private static int list[] = {3, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10};

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        BinarySearch b = new BinarySearch();
        b.binarySearch(list);

    }

    public void binarySearch(int[] args) {
        System.out.println("Binary search.");

        int upperBound = args.length;
        int lowerBound = 1;
        int midpoint = (upperBound + lowerBound) / 2;
        int difference = upperBound - lowerBound;

        int search = 7;

        for (int i = 0; i < args.length; i++) {
            if (search < args[midpoint - 1] && difference != 1) {
                upperBound = midpoint - 1;
                midpoint = upperBound / 2;
            } else if (search > args[midpoint - 1] && difference != 1) {
                lowerBound = midpoint + 1;
                midpoint = (lowerBound + upperBound) / 2;

            } else if (search == args[midpoint - 1]) {
                midpoint = midpoint - 1;

                System.out.println("We found " + search + " at position " + midpoint + " in the list.");
                i = args.length;
            } else {
                System.out.println("We couldn't find " + search + " in the list.");
                i = args.length;
            }
        }
    }
}

我真的希望能够编写一种更简洁，有效的二进制搜索算法，以替代我编写的代码。我已经看到了如何使用递归的示例，例如使用我理解的数字进行阶乘时。但是，当编写这种复杂的代码时，我对如何利用它感到困惑。因此，我的问题是编码二进制搜索算法时如何应用递归。如果您有什么技巧可以完善我的递归技能，即使它不必与二进制搜索无关，也请随时发表。
