题目

  实现函数 double Power(double base, int exponent),求 base 的 exponent 次方。不得使用库函数,同时不需要考虑大数问题。

算法设计思想

  无论是简单直接方法,还是高效的方法,都需要首先全面考虑 base 和 exponent 的可能的输入:正数、负数和 0。实现的基本思想是把数值的整数次方,转化为数值的非负整数次方,然后根据指数的符号,再做相应处理,具体如下:

  假设求解 a 的 n 次方,在指数 n 为正整数的前提下,简单直接方法就是将结果依次,就将结果乘以 base 几次,此时算法的时间复杂度为 O(n);

  高效算法利用下面的公式,此时算法的时间复杂度为 O(logn)。

  若指数 n 为负整数,则可先求 a 的 -n 次方,最后将计算结果取倒数,即可。此时需要注意,分母不能为 0,即 a 的 -n 次方的结果不能为 0,也就是说,当 n 为负整数时,a 不能为 0。

  若指数 n 为 0 时,只要 a 不等于 0,则计算结果为 1;若 a 为 0 时,则为 0 的 0 次方,没有意义。

注:
  易错点,将浮点数(float 或 double)使用 == 符号与 0 直接比较,以判断此数值是否为 0。因为浮点数在计算机中的表示是有误差的,所以不是直接使用 == 符号判断某浮点数是否为 0。在实现时,往往需要判断浮点数是否在数值 0.0 附近的小范围之内,若是,则判定此数值为 0。本博文中,取 10 的 -7 次方(1e-7)作为误差范围。
