[Leetcode] Search in Rotated Sorted Array

时间：2015-03-15 02:05:16 收藏：0 阅读：104

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.

画个图比划一下子就清楚了。

 1 class Solution {
 2 public:
 3     int search(int A[], int n, int target) {
 4         int l = 0, r = n - 1, m;
 5         while (l <= r) {
 6             m = l + (r - l)/2;
 7             if (A[m] == target) return m;
 8             if (A[m] < A[r]) {
 9                 if (A[m] <= target && target <= A[r]) l = m + 1;
10                 else r = m - 1;
11             } else {
12                 if (A[l] <= target && target <= A[m]) r = m - 1;
13                 else l = m + 1;
14             }
15         }
16         return -1;
17     }
18 };
