[leetcode] 117. Search Insert Position

题目

Given a sorted array and a target value, return the index if the target is found. If not, return the index where it would be if it were inserted in order.

You may assume no duplicates in the array.

Here are few examples.
[1,3,5,6], 5 → 2
[1,3,5,6], 2 → 1
[1,3,5,6], 7 → 4
[1,3,5,6], 0 → 0

解题之法

class Solution {
public:
    int searchInsert(vector& nums, int target) {
        if (nums.back() < target) return nums.size();
        int left = 0, right = nums.size() - 1;
        while (left < right) {
            int mid = left + (right - left) / 2;
            if (nums[mid] == target) return mid;
            else if (nums[mid] < target) left = mid + 1;
            else right = mid;
        }
        return right;
    }
};
