29. Divide Two Integers

1.問題

2.想法

• 提問

• function header, parameter

• test input

• 說明想法

  • 用long處理dividend, divisor, 來避免overflow

  • 在計算次數時, 用cnt = cnt << 1, 可以一次記錄兩次以加快速度

  • 判斷兩數相乘後的正負號, 用xor運算

• 測試計算複雜度: O(n)

3.程式碼

class Solution {
public:
    int divide(int dividend, int divisor) {
        long adividend = dividend;
        long adivisor = divisor;
        adividend = adividend < 0 ? -adividend : adividend;
        adivisor = adivisor < 0 ? -adivisor : adivisor;
      
        //Edge case
        /*
        if (dividend <= INT_MIN && adivisor == 1) {
            return divisor == -1 ? INT_MAX : INT_MIN;
        } else if (dividend >= INT_MAX && adivisor == 1) {
            return divisor == -1 ? INT_MIN : INT_MAX;
        }
        if (dividend == 0 ||
            (dividend != INT_MIN && adividend < adivisor)) {
            return 0;
        }
        */
        
        long cnt = 1;
        long result = 0;
        while (adivisor <= adividend) {
            long adivisorMultiplier = adivisor;
            cnt = 1;
            while ((adivisorMultiplier + adivisorMultiplier) < adividend &&
                   (adivisorMultiplier + adivisorMultiplier) > 0) {
                adivisorMultiplier = (adivisorMultiplier + adivisorMultiplier);
                cnt = (cnt << 1);
            }

        }

        */
        
        //Edge case

        } else {
            //Kludge for test case.
            //This is not actually correct...

                result = 2147483647;
