Data Comparison Analysis

I have an to do a project that counts the number of comparisons made when searching an array of 1000 elements called list. One for binary search method and a hybrid method of searching. But that is beside the point. For simplicity and neatness I would like to contain everything into one method call. Maybe BinarySearch(list, target) and HybridSearch(list,target). The problem comes when I have to return both the number of comparisons made and the index of the target. I am sure there some ultra easy way to do this that I am not seeing.

Anyone?

More than I expected from a forced indentation based language. Of course, there's no way to make some of the values optional. Either you get a = lolwut() => ("hi", 3) or you get a, b = lolwut() => a = "hi", b = 3.
