Given two non-negative integers low and high. Return the count of odd numbers between low and high (inclusive).

 

Example 1:

Input: low = 3, high = 7
Output: 3
Explanation: The odd numbers between 3 and 7 are [3,5,7].

Example 2:

Input: low = 8, high = 10
Output: 1
Explanation: The odd numbers between 8 and 10 are [9].

 

Constraints:

  • 0 <= low <= high <= 10^9

Solution 1.

There are high - low + 1 numbers in the range, so there are at least (high - low + 1) / 2 odd numbers. If low is odd, then there will be (high - low + 1 + (low % 2)) / 2 odd numbers.
