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;
}
};
