0153. Find Minimum in Rotated Sorted Array
https://leetcode.com/problems/find-minimum-in-rotated-sorted-array
Description
Suppose an array of length n sorted in ascending order is rotated between 1 and n times. For example, the array nums = [0,1,2,4,5,6,7] might become:
[4,5,6,7,0,1,2]if it was rotated4times.[0,1,2,4,5,6,7]if it was rotated7times.
Notice that rotating an array [a[0], a[1], a[2], ..., a[n-1]] 1 time results in the array [a[n-1], a[0], a[1], a[2], ..., a[n-2]].
Given the sorted rotated array nums of unique elements, return the minimum element of this array.
You must write an algorithm that runs in O(log n) time.
Example 1:
**Input:** nums = [3,4,5,1,2]
**Output:** 1
**Explanation:** The original array was [1,2,3,4,5] rotated 3 times.Example 2:
**Input:** nums = [4,5,6,7,0,1,2]
**Output:** 0
**Explanation:** The original array was [0,1,2,4,5,6,7] and it was rotated 4 times.Example 3:
**Input:** nums = [11,13,15,17]
**Output:** 11
**Explanation:** The original array was [11,13,15,17] and it was rotated 4 times. Constraints:
n == nums.length1 <= n <= 5000-5000 <= nums[i] <= 5000All the integers of
numsare unique.numsis sorted and rotated between1andntimes.
