Write an efficient algorithm that searches for a value in an m x n matrix. This matrix has the following properties:
- Integers in each row are sorted from left to right.
- The first integer of each row is greater than the last integer of the previous row.
For example,
Consider the following matrix:
[ [1, 3, 5, 7], [10, 11, 16, 20], [23, 30, 34, 50] ]
Given target = 3
, return true
.
思路:这道题就是在这个二维矩阵中查找一目标值。根据这个矩阵的特点:1.每一行的值都是从小到大排列的;2.当前行的第一个元素大于上一行最后元素。根据这两个性质,我们从每一行的最后一个元素查找,如果target正好等于这个值,则返回true;如果小于这个元素,这向前移动;如果大于这个元素,则向下移动;
class Solution { public: bool searchMatrix(vector<vector<int> > &matrix, int target) { int n=matrix.size(); int m=matrix[0].size(); if(n==0||m==0) return false; int i=0,j=m-1; while(i<n && j>=0) { if(target==matrix[i][j]) return true; else if(target<matrix[i][j]) j--; else i++; } return false; } };
