+# ### Binary Search Exercise
+# 1. When I try to find number 5 in below list using binary search, it doesn't work and returns me -1 index. Why is that?
+
+#     ```numbers = [1,4,6,9,10,5,7]```
+
+# This is because the array is not sorted in order from lowest to highest. 
+# Once it splits the first time, it starts looking in the [1,4,6] range and doesn't find 5
+
+# 1. Find index of all the occurances of a number from sorted list
+
+#     ```
+#     numbers = [1,4,6,9,11,15,15,15,17,21,34,34,56]

+# ### Bubble Sort Exercise
+
+# Modify [bubble_sort function](https://github.com/codebasics/data-structures-algorithms-python/blob/master/algorithms/2_BubbleSort/bubble_sort.py) such that it can sort following list of transactions happening in an electronic store,
+# ```
+# elements = [
+#         { 'name': 'mona',   'transaction_amount': 1000, 'device': 'iphone-10'},
+#         { 'name': 'dhaval', 'transaction_amount': 400,  'device': 'google pixel'},
+#         { 'name': 'kathy',  'transaction_amount': 200,  'device': 'vivo'},
+#         { 'name': 'aamir',  'transaction_amount': 800,  'device': 'iphone-8'},
+#     ]
+# ``` 
+# bubble_sort function should take key from a transaction record and sort the list as per that key. For example,
+# ```
+# bubble_sort(elements, key='transaction_amount')
+# ```
+# This will sort elements by transaction_amount and your sorted list will look like,
+# ```
+# elements = [
+#         { 'name': 'kathy',  'transaction_amount': 200,  'device': 'vivo'},
+#         { 'name': 'dhaval', 'transaction_amount': 400,  'device': 'google pixel'},
+#         { 'name': 'aamir',  'transaction_amount': 800,  'device': 'iphone-8'},
+#         { 'name': 'mona',   'transaction_amount': 1000, 'device': 'iphone-10'},
+#     ]
+# ``` 
+# But if you call it like this,
+# ```
+# bubble_sort(elements, key='name')
+# ```
+# output will be,
+# ```
+# elements = [
