Median of Two Sorted Arrays-----LeetCode

There are two sorted arrays A and B of size m and n respectively. Find the median of the two sorted arrays. The overall run time complexity should be O(log (m+n)).

 

解题思路：

该题可以解决所有求有序数组A和B有序合并之后第k小的数！

该题的重要结论：

如果A[k/2-1]<B[k/2-1]，那么A[0]~A[k/2-1]一定在第k小的数的序列当中，可以用反证法证明。

    double findKth(int A[], int m, int B[], int n, int k)

        if (k <= 1)
            return min(A[0], B[0]);

        int pa = min(k / 2, m), pb = k - pa;
