Majority Element

Given an array of size n, find the majority element. The majority element is the element that appears more than ⌊ n/2 ⌋ times.

You may assume that the array is non-empty and the majority element always exist in the array.

1. 找到数组中出现次数大于n/2的项；
2. 可以先给数组排序，如果出现次数多余一半，则排序后中间一定为该项；

class Solution {
public:
    int majorityElement(vector<int>& nums) {
      sort(nums.begin(),nums.end());
      int n = nums.size();
      return nums[n/2];
    }

};

1. 第二种采用分治的思想；
2. 分为左右两组，一次递归选出出现次数多的

class Solution {
public:
    int majorityElement(vector<int>& nums) {
        return majority(nums, 0, nums.size() - 1);
    }
private:
    int majority(vector<int>& nums, int left, int right) {
        if (left == right) return nums[left];
        int mid = left + ((right - left) >> 1);
        int lm = majority(nums, left, mid);
        int rm = majority(nums, mid + 1, right);
        if (lm == rm) return lm;
        return count(nums.begin() + left, nums.begin() + right + 1, lm) > count(nums.begin() + left, nums.begin() + right + 1, rm) ? lm : rm;
    }
};
