Follow up for "Search in Rotated Sorted Array":
What if duplicates are allowed?
Would this affect the run-time complexity? How and why?
Write a function to determine if a given target is in the array.
class Solution {
public:
bool search(int A[], int n, int target) {
if(n==0) return false;
return binary(A,0,n-1,target);
