Comment:

 I agree.

 If we use the hierarchy method mentioned above we would recursively have
 to search through the array whereas with the left and right pointer-method
 it wouldn't matter how "deep" the array in question was, the search is
 simple.

 I have some free time tonight, I'd love to get some work done on this.
