Solution: Find First and Last Position of Element in Sorted Array

Explore how to apply modified binary search to locate the first and last indexes of a target in a sorted array. This lesson guides you through implementing a helper function to find boundaries, ensuring you maintain logarithmic time complexity for efficient searching.

Statement

You are given an integer array, nums, that is sorted in non-decreasing order. Your task is to find the first and last indexes of a given value, target, within this array.

If the target does not appear in the array at all, return [-1, -1].

Note: You must write an algorithm with O(logn)O(\log n) ...
