Search for a Range

Given a sorted array of integers, find the starting and ending position of a given target value.

Your algorithm's runtime complexity must be in the order of O(log n).

If the target is not found in the array, return [-1, -1].

For example,
Given [5, 7, 7, 8, 8, 10] and target value 8,
return [3, 4].

思路

通过二分查找,如果没找到返回[-1,-1]如果找到middle,找出start和ending即可

 1 public class Solution {
 2     public int[] searchRange(int[] A, int target) {
 3         boolean found = false;
 4         int low = 0;
 5         int high = A.length - 1;
 6         int middle = 0;
 7         int result[] = new int[2];
 8         
 9         while(low <= high){
10             middle = (low + high) / 2;
11             if(target > A[middle]){
12                 low = middle + 1;
13             }
14             else if(target < A[middle]){
15                 high = middle - 1;
16             }
17             else
18             {
19                 found = true;
20                 break;
21             }
22         }//while
23         if(!found)        //没有查找到
24         {            
25             result[0] = -1;
26             result[1] = -1;
27         }//if
28         else{
29             while(middle >= 0 && A[middle] == target){
30                 middle--;
31             }
32             if(middle < 0)
33                 result[0] = 0;
34             else
35                 result[0] = middle + 1;
36             middle = result[0];
37             while(middle < A.length && A[middle] == target){
38                 middle++;
39             }
40             if(middle >= A.length)
41                 result[1] = A.length - 1;
42             else
43                 result[1] = middle - 1;
44         }//else
45         return result;
46     }
47 }
