34. Search for a Range
Given a sorted array of integers, 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]
.
public int[] searchRange(int[] nums, int target) {
int[] res={-1,-1};
int high=nums.length-1;
int low=0;
if(nums.length==0 || nums[low]>target || nums[high]<target )
return res;
while(low<=high){
int mid=(low+high)/2;
if(nums[mid]==target){
int i;
for(i=mid-1;i>=0 && nums[i]==target;i--){
}
res[0]=i+1;
for(i=mid+1;i<nums.length &&nums[i]==target;i++){
}
res[1]=i-1;
return res;
}else if(nums[mid]>target){
high=mid-1;
}else{
low=mid+1;
}
}
return res;
}
