Solution: Search Insert Position

Explore how to solve the Search Insert Position problem by applying a modified binary search. This lesson guides you through the algorithm that finds where a target fits in a sorted array, ensuring efficient search and insertion with O(log n) time complexity.

Statement

Given a sorted array of distinct integers, nums, and an integer, target, return the index of target if it exists in the array.
If the target is not present, return the index where it should be inserted to maintain the sorted order.

Your algorithm must run in the O(logn)O(\log n) time.

Constraints:

  • 11 \leq nums.length 103\leq 10^3 ...
