题目:
A peak element is an element that is greater than its neighbors.
Given an input array nums
, where nums[i] ≠ nums[i+1]
, find a peak element and return its index.
The array may contain multiple peaks, in that case return the index to any one of the peaks is fine.
You may imagine that nums[-1] = nums[n] = -∞
.
Example 1:
Input: nums = [1,2,3,1]
Output: 2 Explanation: 3 is a peak element and your function should return the index number 2.
Example 2:
Input: nums = [1,2,1,3,5,6,4] Output: 1 or 5 Explanation: Your function can return either index number 1 where the peak element is 2, or index number 5 where the peak element is 6.
Follow up: Your solution should be in logarithmic complexity
要求时间复杂度为logn
算法解析:要求找到一个峰值
使用二分查找:单调增 取最后; 单调减 取第一个
如果 nums[mid] > nums[mid+1] 向右处于下降区间,因此峰值在[ l, mid]; 否则峰值在(mid,r]
class Solution {
public:
int findPeakElement(vector<int>& nums) {
int l = 0, r = nums.size() - 1;
while(l < r)
{
int mid = l + r >> 1;
if(nums[mid] > nums[mid + 1]) r = mid;
else l = mid + 1;
}
return r;
}
};
