Leetcode 81. Search in Rotated Sorted Array II

Follow up for "Search in Rotated Sorted Array":
What if duplicates are allowed?

Would this affect the run-time complexity? How and why?

Write a function to determine if a given target is in the array.


解题思路:

Leetcode Search in Rotated Sorted Array 类似。解题思路一致。只有重复数的差别。

当有重复数字,会存在A[mid] = A[end]的情况。此时右半序列A[mid-1 : end]可能是sorted,也可能并没有sorted,如下例子。

3 1 2 3 3 3 3 
3 3 3 3 1 2 3

所以当A[mid] = A[end] != target时,无法排除一半的序列,而只能排除掉A[end]:

A[mid] = A[end] != target时:搜寻A[start : end-1]

正因为这个变化,在最坏情况下,算法的复杂度退化成了O(n):

序列 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 中寻找target = 1。

Java code:
public class Solution {
    public boolean search(int[] nums, int target) {
        int left = 0, right = nums.length-1;
        int index = -1;
        while(left <= right){
            int mid = left + (right - left)/2;
            if(nums[mid] == target) {
                index = mid;
            }
            if(nums[mid] < nums[right]) { //right half sorted
                if(target > nums[mid] && target <= nums[right]){
                    left = mid+1;
                }else{
                    right = mid-1;
                }
            }else if(nums[mid] > nums[right]){ //left half sorted
                if(target >= nums[left] && target < nums[mid]){
                    right = mid-1;
                }else {
                    left = mid+1;
                }
            }else{
                right--;
            }
        }
        return index != -1;
    }
}

2. 九章算法思路,本题与33题差异就在有相同的数字,那么最坏情况下,全部数字相等,那么复杂度就是O(n),每次只能扔掉一个数。还是比较start 和mid.

这次会有情况nums[start] == nums[mid] 那么就要去除一个数字 start   2016.01.15

public class Solution {
    public boolean search(int[] nums, int target) {
        int index = -1;
        if(nums == null || nums.length == 0) {
            return false;
        }
        int start = 0, end = nums.length-1;
        int mid;
        while(start + 1 < end){
            mid = start + (end - start) / 2;
            if(nums[mid] == target) {
                index = mid;
            }
            if(nums[start] < nums[mid]){
                if(nums[start] <= target && target <= nums[mid]){
                    end = mid;
                } else {
                    start = mid;
                }
            } else if (nums[start] > nums[mid]){
                if(nums[mid] <= target && target <= nums[end]){
                    start = mid;
                } else {
                    end = mid;
                }
            } else {
                start++;
            }
        }//while
        if(nums[start] == target){
            index = start;
        }
        if(nums[end] == target){
            index = end;
        }
        return index != -1;
    }
}
