374. Guess Number Higher or Lower
We are playing the Guess Game. The game is as follows:
I pick a number from 1 to n. You have to guess which number I picked.
Every time you guess wrong, I'll tell you whether the number is higher or lower.
You call a pre-defined API guess(int num)
which returns 3 possible results (-1
, 1
, or 0
):
感觉这是个为了二分算法而做的题,啥也不说了贴出来
/* The guess API is defined in the parent class GuessGame.
@param num, your guess
@return -1 if my number is lower, 1 if my number is higher, otherwise return 0
int guess(int num); */
public class Solution extends GuessGame {
public int guessNumber(int n) {
int left = 1;
int right = n;
int middle;
while(left <= right){
middle = left +(right - left) / 2;
if(guess(middle) == 0){
return middle;
}
if(guess(middle) == -1){
right = middle - 1;
}
if(guess(middle) == 1){
left = middle + 1;
}
}
return -1;
