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):

-1 : My number is lower
 1 : My number is higher
 0 : Congrats! You got it!

Example:

n = 10, I pick 6.

Return 6.

/* 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); */

		int end = n;
		while (start <= end) {
			// mid = (low + high) / 2;会溢出
			int mid = start + (end - start) / 2;
			int res = guess(mid);
			if (res == 0)
				return mid;
			else if (res == 1) {
				start = mid + 1;
			} else {
				end = mid - 1;
			}
		}
		return start;
