540. Single Element in a Sorted Array

Given a sorted array consisting of only integers where every element appears twice except for one element which appears once. Find this single element that appears only once.

Example 1:

Input: [1,1,2,3,3,4,4,8,8]
Output: 2

Example 2:

Input: [3,3,7,7,10,11,11]
Output: 10

Note: Your solution should run in O(log n) time and O(1) space.


思路: * focus on even index
 * 因为lo,hi在更新的时候求出来的mid不一定是even
 * 所以在n/2内二分

class Solution {
    public int singleNonDuplicate(int[] nums) {
        int lo = 0, hi = nums.length/2;
        while(lo < hi) {
        	int mid = lo + (hi-lo) / 2;
        	if(nums[mid*2] == nums[mid*2+1]) // 0..2*mid+1都是ok的
        		lo = mid+1;
        	else
        		hi = mid;
        }
        
        return nums[2*lo];
    }
}

class Solution:
    '''分当前index是奇数还是偶数讨论,进而判断前面有奇数个数还是偶数个数,
    最后以此推测下表的变换
    '''
    def singleNonDuplicate(self, nums):
        """
        :type nums: List[int]
        :rtype: int
        """
        lo,hi=0,len(nums)-1
        while lo<hi:
            mid=lo+(hi-lo)//2
            if mid%2==0:
                if nums[mid]==nums[mid+1]:
                    lo=mid
                else:
                    hi=mid+2
            else:

                    hi=mid-1
                else:
                    lo=mid+1
        return nums[lo]
s=Solution()
print(s.singleNonDuplicate([1,1,2,3,3,4,4,8,8]))
print(s.singleNonDuplicate([3,3,7,7,10,11,11]))
