【leetcode刷题笔记】Pow(x, n)

Implement pow(xn).


 

题解:注意两点:

  1. 普通的递归把n降为n-1会超时,要用二分的方法,每次把x= x[n/2] * x[n/2] * xn-[n/2]*2, [n/2]表示n除以2下取整。
  2. n有可能取负数,负数的时候,先计算pow(x,-n),然后返回1/pow(x,-n);

代码如下:

 1 public class Solution {

 2     public double pow(double x, int n) {

 3         if(n == 0)

 4             return 1;

 5         if(n == 1)

 6             return x;

 7         

 8         boolean isNeg = false;

 9         

10         //if n is negative,we first caculate 1/pow(x,n) = pow(x,-n)

11         if(n<0){

12             isNeg = true;

13             n *= -1;

14         }

15         

16         //binary

17         int mid = n /2;

18         int left = n - mid*2;

19         double front = pow(x, mid);

20         double end = pow(x, left);

21         

22         if(isNeg)

23             return 1/(front*front*end);

24         else {

25             return front*front*end;

26         }

27     }

28 }
