9.3 寻找magic index
在A[0..n-1]中,满足条件 A[i]==i的索引。
给定一个有序数组,设法找到其中的magic index。
扩展:考虑有重复元素的情况如何处理。
public class Solution { public static int magicIndex(int[] array) { return magicDup(array, 0, array.length - 1); } /** * 非递归,有重复情况可能有问题 */ private static int magic(int[] a, int left, int right) { while (left <= right) { int mid = left + (right - left) / 2; if (a[mid] < mid) { left = mid + 1; } else if (a[mid] > mid) { right = mid - 1; } else return mid; } return -1; } /** * 递归写法,能够处理有重复的情况 */ private static int magicDup(int[] a, int left, int right) { if (left > right) return -1; int mid = left + (right - left) / 2; if (a[mid] == mid) return mid; int leftIdx = Math.min(mid - 1, a[mid]); int leftEnd = magicDup(a, left, leftIdx); if (leftEnd >= 0) return leftEnd; int rightIdx = Math.max(mid + 1, a[mid]); int rightEnd = magicDup(a, rightIdx, right); return rightEnd; } public static void main(String[] args) { int[] a = { 0, 2, 4, 5 }; System.out.println(magicIndex(a)); } }
