 * binary searching is composed of 3 sections:
     * **pre-processing**: sort if collection is unsorted
     * **binary search**: using a loop or recursion to divide search space in half after each comparison (`O(log(N)`)
-    * **post-processing`: determine viable candidates in the remaining space
+    * **post-processing**: determine viable candidates in the remaining space
 
 * there are 3 "templates" when writing a binary search:
     * `while left < right`, with `left = mid + 1` and `right = mid - 1`
