Leetcode 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.

应该选择二分法进行计算，这样在数值较大的时候效率比较高。

/* 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 i = 1;
        int j = n;
        while(i<j){
            if(guess(i) == 0) return i;
            if(guess(j) == 0) return j;
            int middle = i + (j - i) / 2;//需要注意middle的求法
            int result = guess(middle);
            if(result == 0) return middle;
            if(result == 1) i = middle+1;//因为middle已经计算过了所以新的i是middle+1
            if(result == -1) j = middle;
        }
       return i;
    }
