0162. Find Peak Element

https://leetcode.com/problems/find-peak-element

Description

A peak element is an element that is strictly greater than its neighbors.

Given an integer array nums, find a peak element, and return its index. If the array contains multiple peaks, return the index to any of the peaks.

You may imagine that nums[-1] = nums[n] = -∞.

You must write an algorithm that runs in O(log n) time.

Example 1:

**Input:** nums = [1,2,3,1]
**Output:** 2
**Explanation:** 3 is a peak element and your function should return the index number 2.

Example 2:

**Input:** nums = [1,2,1,3,5,6,4]
**Output:** 5
**Explanation:** Your function can return either index number 1 where the peak element is 2, or index number 5 where the peak element is 6.

Constraints:

• 1 <= nums.length <= 1000

• -231 <= nums[i] <= 231 - 1

• nums[i] != nums[i + 1] for all valid i.
