题目:
Suppose a sorted array is rotated at some pivot unknown to you beforehand.
(i.e., 0 1 2 4 5 6 7
might become 4 5 6 7 0 1 2
).
You are given a target value to search. If found in the array return its index, otherwise return -1.
You may assume no duplicate exists in the array.
分析如下:详细见http://fisherlei.blogspot.com/2013/01/leetcode-search-in-rotated-sorted-array.html
class Solution { public: int search(vector<int>& nums, int target) { int left = 0; int right = nums.size()-1; while(left <= right) { int mid = (left + right)/2; if(nums[mid] == target) return mid; if(nums[mid] >= nums[left])//说明左半部分有序 { if(target < nums[mid] && target >= nums[left])//target在左半部分 right = mid-1; else left = mid + 1;//target在右半部分 } else//说明右半部分有序 { if(target > nums[mid] && target <= nums[right])//target在右半部分 left = mid + 1; else//target在左半部分 right = mid - 1; } } return -1; } };
