题目:
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].

1) 二分搜索。
2) 题目中说已经排好序的整形数组。假如要搜索的整数是5,搜索时可以分别搜索出4.5和5.5的插入位置,这两个位置就是我们要求的结果。具体见代码:
class Solution {
public:
vector<int> searchRange(vector<int>& nums, int target) {
vector<int> res(2,-1);
int p1 = biSearch(nums, target-0.5);
int p2 = biSearch(nums, target+0.5) - 1;
if(p1<=p2){
res[0] = p1;
res[1] = p2;
}
return res;
}
int biSearch(vector<int>& nums, float target){
int s = 0, e = nums.size()-1, mid;
while(s<=e){
mid = (s+e)/2;
if(nums[mid]<target)
s = mid+1;
if(nums[mid]>target)
e = mid-1;
}
return s;
}
};
