Follow up for "Find Minimum in Rotated Sorted Array":
What if duplicates are allowed?

Would this affect the run-time complexity? How and why?

Suppose an array sorted in ascending order is rotated at some pivot unknown to you beforehand.

(i.e., 0 1 2 4 5 6 7 might become 4 5 6 7 0 1 2).

Find the minimum element.

The array may contain duplicates.

int findMin(int* nums, int numsSize) 
{
    if(numsSize == 0) 
    {
        return 0;
    } else if(numsSize == 1) 
    {
        return nums[0];
    } else if(numsSize == 2) 
    {
        return (nums[0] > nums[1]) ? nums[1] : nums[0];
    }
    
    int start = 0;
    int end = numsSize -1;
    int mid = 0;
    
    while(start < end - 1)
    {
        /*数组有序递增*/
        if(nums[start] < nums[end])
            return nums[start];
        
        /*计算mid注意方法*/
        mid = start + (end - start) / 2;
        
        if(nums[start] > nums[mid])
            end = mid;
        else if (nums[start] < nums[mid])
            start = mid;
        else
            start = start + 1;
    }
    
    return (nums[start] > nums[end]) ? nums[end] : nums[start];
    
}
