4. Median of Two Sorted Array (Hard) TBC

 Consider 2 sorted arrays

A 1,2,3

B 7,8,9

The median is the (3 + 7) / 2. The mid index is 3.5. This is the case when the A max < B min. When A max < B min, it indicates the 2 arrays has no overlapped range.


A 1 3 5 7 9

B 2 2 3 4 5

The median of the sorted 1 2 2 3 3 4 5 5 7 9 is related to 3 and 4 and is 3.5.

We can quickly find the median of 5 in A and median of 3 in B.


A median means that there are equal amount of numbers on both sides.

For 2 medians,
