Sequence.search

Returns an iterator pointing to the position where data would be inserted according to cmp_func and cmp_data.

cmp_func is called with two items of the seq, and cmp_data. It should return 0 if the items are equal, a negative value if the first item comes before the second, and a positive value if the second item comes before the first.

If you are simply searching for an existing element of the sequence, consider using Sequence.lookup.

This function will fail if the data contained in the sequence is unsorted.
