Find Minimum in Rotated Sorted Array II
Follow up for "Find Minimum in Rotated Sorted Array":
What if duplicates are allowed?Would this affect the run-time complexity? How and why?
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
).
Find the minimum element.
The array may contain duplicates.
class Solution{ public: int findMin(vector<int>& nums){ int size = nums.size(); int left = 0; int right = size - 1; int mid; while(left < right){ mid = (left + right)/2; if(nums[mid] > nums[right]) left = mid+1; else if(nums[mid] < nums[right]) right = mid; else right--; } return nums[left]; } };
