我正在使用 NetBeans 编写一种带有参考编号的图书馆数据库来查找书籍。我同时使用线性搜索和二进制搜索来确定参考号是否在库中,但是当它应该为真时,二进制搜索会一直返回假。这是我的整体代码的样子:

package u3a3_bookslist;

import java.util.*;
import java.io.*;

public class bookslist {

//Define the default variables to use in all other methods of the program
public static int index, numSearches;

public static void main(String[] args) {

    //Define the ArrayList to store the values of 'BookList.txt'
    ArrayList <String> books = new ArrayList <String>();

    //Define the default values to use later in the code
    BufferedReader br = null;
    String referenceNumber;

    //Use a try statement to analyze the entire 'BookList.txt' file and add
    //each value on a new line into the arrayList 'books'
    try {
        br = new BufferedReader(new FileReader("BookList.txt"));
        String word;
        while ((word = br.readLine()) != null ){
            books.add(word);
        }
    } catch (IOException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    } finally {
        try {
            br.close();
        } catch (IOException ex) {
            ex.printStackTrace();
        }
    }

    //Create a new Array called 'bookList' to store and convert all the values
    //from the 'books' arrayList
    String [] bookList = new String[books.size()];
    books.toArray(bookList);

    //Create a scanner input to ask the user to enter a reference number
    Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
    System.out.println("Enter the reference number of a book to determine"
            + " if it is in the library or not: ");

    //Set the variable 'referenceNumber' to whatever value that the user inputted
    //into the Scanner
    referenceNumber = input.next();

    //Obtain the boolean result of either true or false from the Binary and
    //Linear search methods
    Boolean resultLinear = linearSearch(bookList, referenceNumber);
    Boolean resultBinary = binarySearch(bookList, 0, bookList.length-1, referenceNumber);

    //Analyze each element that is contained in the 'bookList' Array
    for (int i = 0; i < bookList.length; i++) {

        //Determine if the value of 'i' is equal to the 'referenceNumber'
        //converted into an int format
        if (i == Integer.parseInt(referenceNumber)) {

            //Determine if the 'i' index of the 'bookList' Array is equal
            //to the user inputted reference number
            if (bookList[i].equals(referenceNumber)) {

                //If the previous statement were true, the 'index' variable
                //was set to equal to current value for 'i'
                index = i;
            }
        }
    }

    //Determine the message to display to the user depending on if the reference
    //number was found in the Array using a Linear Search
    if (resultLinear == true) {
        System.out.println("Linear Search: Reference Number " + referenceNumber +
                " was found in the library. The book with that number is: " + bookList[index+1]);
    } else {
        System.out.println("Linear Search: Reference Number " + referenceNumber
                + " not in the library. No book with that number.");
    }

    //Determine the message to display to the user depending on if the reference
    //number was found in the Array using a Binary search
    if (resultBinary != false) {
        System.out.println("Binary Search: Reference Number " + referenceNumber +
                " was found in the library. The book with that number is: " + bookList[index+1]);
    } else {
        System.out.println("Binary Search: Reference Number " + referenceNumber
                + " not in the library. No book with that number.");
    }


}

//Execute a linear search to determine if the user inputted reference number
//is contained in the bookList Array
static public Boolean linearSearch(String[] A, String B) {
    for (int k = 0; k < A.length; k++) {
        if (A[k].equals(B)) {
            return true;
        }
    }
    return false;
}

//Execute a binary search to determine if the user inputted reference number
//is contained in the bookList Array
public static Boolean binarySearch(String[] A, int left, int right, String V) {

    int middle;
     numSearches ++;
     if (left > right) {
         return false;
     }

     middle = (left + right)/2;
     int compare = V.compareTo(A[middle]);
     if (compare == 0) {
         return true;
     }
     if (compare < 0) {
         return binarySearch(A, left, middle-1, V);
     } else {
         return binarySearch(A, middle + 1, right, V);
     }

}

}

我遇到问题的程序部分是这部分:

public static Boolean binarySearch(String[] A, int left, int right, String V) {

    int middle;
     numSearches ++;
     if (left > right) {
         return false;
     }

     middle = (left + right)/2;
     int compare = V.compareTo(A[middle]);
     if (compare == 0) {
         return true;
     }
     if (compare < 0) {
         return binarySearch(A, left, middle-1, V);
     } else {
         return binarySearch(A, middle + 1, right, V);
     }

}

我只是不明白为什么二进制搜索在应该为真时返回假。当它为真时,即使是线性搜索也会返回真。

我看到您对线性搜索和二进制搜索使用相同的数组。
您之前是否忘记对数组进行排序?

使二进制搜索成为可能的是给定数组已排序的事实 - 值仅以一种方式出现(大多数情况下变得更大)。
我在您的代码中看不到任何类型的排序 - 二进制搜索工作的最重要条件是排序数组。如果您考虑一下,发生的情况是:数组被“切割”成两部分(没有任何定义每个部分的东西,不像排序数组,其中一部分大于中间而另一部分更小*),每次给定值和找到的值不相等。
因为数组没有排序,得到正确值的机会很小,搜索没有办法根据他“指向”的值找到你想要的值
如果希望的值在中间,或者如果它采用的“路线”会以某种方式导致它(不太可能经常发生),那么您的代码就会起作用。

*也可以相等。只是给出这个想法。
