Given an array of integers sorted in ascending order, find the starting and ending position of a given target value.
Your algorithm's runtime complexity must be in the order of O(log n).
If the target is not found in the array, return [-1, -1]
.
For example,
Given [5, 7, 7, 8, 8, 10]
and target value 8,
return [3, 4]
.
实话实话,给的例子很好,根据题意要时间复杂度O(log n),所以二分查找依旧比较适合,算是33题的变种
