【LeetCode】Guess Number Higher or Lower猜价格高低

问题描述

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 :
Input: n = 10, pick = 6
Output: 6

解题思路

很简单的猜价格问题，写一个函数判断价格是高了还是低了，最后直接输出正确价格。考虑到超时影响，可以使用二分法

代码

int guess(int num);
class Solution {
public:
    int guessNumber(int n) {
        if (guess(n) == 0) return n;
        int left = 1, right = n;
        while (left < right) {
            int mid = left + (right - left) / 2, t = guess(mid);
            if (t == 0) return mid;
            else if (t == 1) left = mid;
            else right = mid;
        }
        return left;
    }
};
