Given a rotated sorted array, recover it to sorted array in-place.
Example
[4, 5, 1, 2, 3] -> [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]

Tags Expand Solution:
The key to the problem is to reverse the list. There are three steps. Take the example of [4, 5, 1, 2, 3].
Step 1: [4, 5] -> [5, 4]
Step 2: [1, 2, 3] -> [3, 2, 1]
Step 3: [5, 4, 3, 2, 1] -> [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]

private void reverse(ArrayList<Integer> nums, int start, int end) {
for (int i = start, j = end; i < j; i++, j--) {
int temp = nums.get(i);
nums.set(i, nums.get(j));
nums.set(j, temp);
}
}
public void recoverRotatedSortedArray(ArrayList<Integer> nums) {
for (int index = 0; index < nums.size() - 1; index++) {
if (nums.get(index) > nums.get(index + 1)) {
reverse(nums, 0, index);
reverse(nums, index + 1, nums.size() - 1);
reverse(nums, 0, nums.size() - 1);
return;
}
}
}
