题目
Given a mountain sequence of n integers which increase firstly and then decrease, find the mountain top.
Example
Given nums = [1, 2, 4, 8, 6, 3] return 8
Given nums = [10, 9, 8, 7], return 10
答案
class Solution:
# @param {int[]} nums a mountain sequence which increase firstly and then decrease
# @return {int} then mountain top
def mountainSequence(self, nums):
# Write your code here
start, end = 0, len(nums) - 1
while(start + 1 < end):
left = start + (end - start) / 2
right = end - (end - left) / 2
if(nums[left] < nums[right]):
start = left + 1
elif nums[left] > nums[right]:
end = right - 1
else:
start = left
end = right
return max(nums[start],nums[end])
