# You are a product manager and currently leading a team to develop a new product. # Unfortunately, the latest version of your product fails the quality check. # Since each version is developed based on the previous version, # all the versions after a bad version are also bad. # # Suppose you have n versions [1, 2, ..., n] and you want to find out the first bad one, # which causes all the following ones to be bad. # # You are given an API bool is_bad_version?(version) which will return whether version is bad. # Implement a function to find the first bad version. # You should minimize the number of calls to the API. # The is_bad_version? API is already defined for you. # @param {Integer} version # @return {boolean} whether the version is bad # def is_bad_version?(version) # version >= 69 ? true : false # end # @param {Integer[]} versions # @return {Integer} def first_bad_version(versions) # binary search midpoint = (versions.length - 1) / 2 middle_version = versions[midpoint] return 1 if middle_version == versions.first if is_bad_version?(middle_version) first_bad_version(versions[0..midpoint]) else midpoint + first_bad_version(versions[midpoint..-1]) end end
