Two ordered arrays, each containing n elements, calculate the nth Element
1. traverse two arrays sequentially, count the smallest K element in K statistics, and the time complexity is O (n)
The Code is as follows:
Int getmid (int A [], int B [], int N) {int K = 0; int I = 0, j = 0; while (I <n & J <n) {if (a [I] <B [J]) {I ++; k ++; If (k = N) return a [I-1];} else {J ++; k ++; If (k = N) return B [J-1] ;}}
2. Binary method
Take the middle element mid1 of array A, take the middle element mid2 of array B, and first compare the size of the two elements. If the two elements are equal, a [mid1] is returned directly. if a [mid1] <B [mid2], the elements on the left of mid1 can be removed, while those on the Right of array B can be removed. The number of elements in the array must be an even odd number, if the number of elements is an even number, the mid1 element should also be removed. This is similar if a [mid1] <B [mid2. The time complexity is O (logn)
# Include <iostream> # include <cstdlib> using namespace STD; int mid (int A [], int B [], int N) {int S1 = 0, e1 = n-1; int S2 = 0, E2 = n-1; int mid1 = (S1 + E1)/2; int mid2 = (s2 + e2)/2; while (S1! = E1 | S2! = E2) {mid1 = (S1 + E1)/2; mid2 = (s2 + e2)/2; if (a [mid1] = B [mid2]) {return a [mid1];} if (a [mid1] <B [mid2]) {If (S1 + E1) % 2 = 0) {S1 = mid1; e2 = mid2;} else {S1 = mid1 + 1; E2 = mid2;} else {If (S1 + E1) % 2 = 0) {e1 = mid1; s2 = mid2;} else {e1 = mid1; S2 = mid2 + 1 ;}} return a [S1] <B [s2]? A [S1]: B [s2];} int main () {int A [5] = {2, 4, 5, 6, 9}; int B [5] = {1, 3, 7, 8, 10}; cout <mid (A, B, 5) <Endl; System ("pause"); Return 0 ;}
