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]
.
题目要求时间复杂度为O(log n).
进行两次折半查找即可。
此算法在leetcode上的实际执行时间为17ms。
class Solution {
public:
vector<int> searchRange(int A[], int n, int target) {
if (!n || target > A[n-1] || target < A[0]) return {-1, -1};
int low = 0, high = n-1;
while (low < high) {
const int mid = low + (high - low) / 2;
if (A[mid] < target)
low = mid + 1;
else
high = mid;
}
const int start = A[low] == target ? low : -1;
if (start == -1) return {-1, -1};
low = start, high = n-1;
while (low < high) {
const int mid = low + (high - low) / 2;
if (A[mid] > target)
high = mid;
else
low = mid + 1;
}
const int stop = A[low] == target ? low : low-1;
return {start, stop};
}
};
