/**
 * This class provides a method to search for a target value in a 2D sorted
 * array.
 * The search is performed using a combination of binary search on rows and
 * columns.
 * The 2D array must be strictly sorted in both rows and columns.
 *
 * The algorithm works by:
 * 1. Performing a binary search on the middle column of the 2D array.
 * 2. Depending on the value found, it eliminates rows above or below the middle
 * element.
 * 3. After finding or eliminating rows, it further applies binary search in the
 * relevant columns.
