154. Find Minimum in Rotated Sorted Array II

(i.e.,  [0,1,2,4,5,6,7] might become  [4,5,6,7,0,1,2]).

Find the minimum element.

The array may contain duplicates.

Example 1:

Input: [1,3,5]

Output: 1

Example 2:

Input: [2,2,2,0,1]

Output: 0

有序数组,不管怎么循环移动,找到最大值,就可以找到最小值。

解法1:双指针,当前大于后,说明前指针是最大值,后是最小值。时间复杂度位n。

解法2:二分查找。

有序数组n,index low high,找到中间index mid,如果n[mid] < n[high],说明无序的在左边;如果n[mid] > n[high],说明无序的在右边。逐步缩小范围。

public static int findMin(int[] nums) {
        int low = 0;
        int high = nums.length - 1;
        while(low < high) {
            int mid = (high + low) >> 1;
            if(nums[mid] < nums[high]) {
                high = mid;
            } else if(nums[mid] > nums[high]) {
                low = mid + 1;
            } else {
                high--;
            }
        }
        return nums[low];
    }
public static int findMax(int[] nums) {
        int low = 0;
        int high = nums.length - 1;
        while(low < high) {
            int mid = (high + low) >> 1;
            if(nums[mid] < nums[high]) {
                high = mid - 1;
            } else if(nums[mid] > nums[high]) {
                low = mid;
            } else {
                low++;
            }
        }
        return nums[low];
    }

看起来这个high--  low++没啥差别。如果没有重复数字的话,确实没差别,有重复的话,极端情况下,上面的代码也找不出来结果。
