Binary search

Binary Search

Jon Bentley以前说过类似的话:“90%的程序猿无法正确实现二分查找算法

就冲着这句话去写binary search

binary_search 的算法实现部分

	You may have to KNOW that the @array was
sequenced from min to max  when you use "binary search".

	If this function find the element , return the
location in the @array, otherwise return -1.

********************************************************/
#include <stdio.h>

int binary_search(int* array,int size,int element)
{
	if(!array)
	{
		printf("You passed NULL into function: %s()
",__FUNCTION__);
		return -1;
	}

	int low = 0;
	int mid = 0;
	int high= 0;

	for(low = 0,high = size-1;low <= high;)
	{
		mid = (low+high)/2;
		
		if(array[mid] < element)
		{
			low = mid+1;
		}
		else if(array[mid] > element)
		{
			high = mid-1;
		}
		else
		{
			/*
			** 	found that.
			*/
			return mid; 
		}
	}

	return -1;
}

測试用程序

#include <stdio.h>
#include "binary_search.h"

int main()
{
	int number[10] = {0,2,6,8,10,15,18,40,99};

	int what_i_want = 18;
	int ret = 0;

	ret = binary_search(number,sizeof(number)/sizeof(number[0]),what_i_want);

	if(ret < 0)
	{
		printf("Not found!
");
		return 0;
	}

	printf("location:%d number[%d]:%d
",ret,ret,number[ret]);

	return 0;
}

update:2015.1.8

加入python版本号的实现
