Assume we are using quicksort to sort an array in ascending order. What can we conclude about the indexes of two pivot elements placed in consecutive recursive calls?

Assume that bands is an ArrayList of String objects, which contains a number of elements in ascending order. Select a statement to complete the code segment below, which invokes the Java library binarySearch method to search for the string “Beatles”.  If the list does not already contain the string, it should be inserted in an appropriate location so that the list remains sorted. int index = Collections.binarySearch(bands, “Beatles”); if (index < 0) { __________________________ }
